Welcome
Hello and welcome,
I’m Josh, your Federal Member of Parliament for Macnamara.
This website is set up to help you access government services, information or support. But if there’s something you cant find here, please call my office on (03) 9534 8126 or send me an email – josh.burns.mp@aph.gov.au
Throughout the Covid-19 pandemic, governments have supported Australians get through this crisis.
Government must also play a role in rebuilding the economy and getting lives back on track.
That’s why I’m focused on supporting and creating jobs, affordable housing, better health services and a more sustainable future.
Together, we can build a fairer society and stronger economy.
Take care of yourself and loved ones
Josh

I #wearthescarf that Janet has knitted for me to remind us of the need for urgent climate action.
The inaction of the Morrison Government is not good enough, we must do more, and we're running out of time.

This is the news we've all been waiting for - lockdown will end from 11:59pm this Thursday.
Victoria’s vaccination rate over the last few weeks has been amazing and we're set to hit our 70% and 80% targets ahead of schedule.
This has been incredibly tough, but a massive thank you to everyone who has gotten vaccinated.
Because of you, we’ll be able to say good riddance to lockdown this weekend, see our friends and family, and visit our favourite local cafes and restaurants.
This has been a mighty effort by Victorians and we should be so proud of what we've overcome.
Of course, we should also say a massive thank you to all our frontline healthcare and emergency workers, and to every permitted worker who kept our state going through lockdown.
Now it's time to bring our city and state back to life, support our local small businesses and to have some fun - we've definitely earned it.
