I commissioned analysis by the Parliamentary Budget Office which found that half of the $3 billion dollars the Albanese government expects to save from scrapping private health insurance rebates for over-65s will be clawed back from pensioners. After paying taxes through their working lives and maintaining private health insurance to meet their health needs as they age, age pension recipients shouldn’t have to bear the brunt of a cash grab during a cost-of-living crisis. Today I stood alongside my parliamentary colleagues Senator Anne Ruston and Jacqui Lambie to call on the government to accept my amendment to exclude pensioners from the rebate cut.
