Jo Clay Named ACT Greens Leader | Australia News

Jo Clay has officially become the new leader of the ACT Greens, winning a secret ballot of party members and taking over from Shane Rattenbury. She’ll be joined by Andrew Braddock as deputy leader, running unopposed. Clay, who’s been acting leader since May, pledged to tackle Canberra’s biggest challenges — housing, homelessness, climate action, and affordability — with a united front. She defeated Rebecca Vassarotti in the leadership race and will now lead portfolios including Environment, Planning, Treasury, and Arts, while Braddock handles Transport, Climate Change, and Municipal Services. The Greens are focused on delivering real community wins, building on recent victories like scrapping the health levy and reinstating rent relief.
