Religious freedom verified

The bill passed 53 to 35.
Energy verified
LNP Premier (Opposition Leader at the 2024 election). Crisafulli supported Queensland's 75% by 2035 emissions reduction target but the LNP voted against the Clean Economy Jobs / Energy (Renewable Transformation and Jobs) legislation that set the pathway, and he committed to repeal the legislated 50%/70%/80% renewable energy targets, saying they would be 'ditched because there is no credible path to get there.' He said he wants to keep coal-fired power stations running 'indefinitely.'
Environment & water verified
Queensland LNP Premier David Crisafulli committed to delivering the state's legislated 75% emissions reduction by 2035 target (set in Labor's Clean Economy Jobs Act 2024, which the LNP voted to support). The Australian Conservation Foundation noted that while the LNP voted in support of Labor's climate targets, the party rejected Labor's plan to deliver them, and called on Crisafulli to produce a credible pathway to meet the 75%-by-2035 goal.
