Benham’s passion is paying off
The Nationals’ Member for Mildura, Jade Benham is proud of recent announcements achieved through dedication and hard work of Councils, individual private companies, and health services. Multiple projects across the region are receiving significant investment, highlighting the power of consistent and persistent advocacy.
Two years into the role and Ms Benham has been on her feet fighting for the electorate in Parliament House over 130 times to amplify the voice of this region.
Hard work is yielding results with recent announcements of funding news, including:
• Robinvale: $5 million for regional worker accommodation
• Irymple: Support for a $4 million key housing development
• Buloke Shire Council: Key Worker Accommodation at Wooroonook Lake, Charlton, Sea Lake, Wycheproof, Watchem Lake, Tchum Lake and Green Lake

• Red Cliffs & Nichols Point: Early learning centre at Red Cliffs and State Government owned and operated kinders to shape the future of our youngest residents.
“As your elected representative, I will always stand up for this electorate. I’m passionate about it, and one of the very reasons In stood is to fight for our food and fibre producers.
“Everything in this region is connected to agriculture on some level and I am a passionate advocate in this space coming from the land. I will continue fighting until we achieve equity. That’s all we want.”
Ms Benham reaffirmed her commitment to fighting for every dollar that can improve the lives of families, businesses, and communities in the entire Mildura Electorate.
