Rikkie-Lee Tyrrell became the first One Nation member in the Victorian Parliament when she was elected as the Member for Northern Victoria Region at the 2022 State Election.
Since that time Rikkie-Lee has worked tirelessly on issues impacting her constituents in what is the largest electorate in Victoria, spanning from Corryong in the east to Mildura in the west, and down to Yarra Glen in the south.
Rikkie-Lee’s common-sense approach to politics has resonated with those she represents, assisting constituents with State Government issues such as the poor condition of regional roads, unfair taxes on farmers, protecting prime agricultural land from new renewable energy projects and ensuring our beautiful state forests remain open for all Victorians to enjoy.
Rikkie-Lee says she entered state politics to help regional communities with issues relating to Victorian government matters and help her constituents navigate the complex bureaucracy of government and its many departments.
“Dealing with the government can be daunting and many people feel overwhelmed dealing with government representatives,” she said.
She is proud to be a voice for the people of her electorate and wants to be their first port of call if they find themselves in need of assistance with any state government issues.
2026 will continue to be a busy year as she advocates in State Parliament on behalf of her constituents, while preparing for the next State Election in November.
In the lead up to International Women’s Day and as a working mum herself, Rikkie-Lee acknowledges the sacrifices that all working mums make juggling their careers with responsibilities at home.
“Every working parent struggles at times with the demands of both their professional and family lives, but like many families, I work hard to strike a good work/life balance,” Rikkie-Lee said.
