Dr Marisa Paterson MLA

Member for Murrumbidgee

I’ve been a Murrumbidgee resident for over 20 years, where I have chosen to raise my three children.

I know what matters to our community: safe neighbourhoods, strong and accessible health and emergency services, opportunities for the next generation, and investment in our local community.

As your representative, I’m committed to listening to our community, standing up for local issues and delivering practical solutions that make a real difference to people’s lives.

I’m proud to serve as your local Member for Murrumbidgee in the ACT Government as: Minister for Health, Mental Health, Police, Fire and Emergency Services and Gaming Reform.

As a Member, I have the privilege of serving Murrumbidgee in the ACT Legislative Assembly.

That means, if you live in the Woden Valley, Weston Creek, the Molonglo Valley or the Inner South suburbs Yarralumla, Deakin, Red Hill and Forrest, I'm your local representative.

Since being elected, I’ve worked to deliver for our community and drive reform on some of the biggest challenges facing the ACT - from addressing domestic, family, and sexual violence, improving community safety, making health and mental health services more accessible, supporting our emergency services personnel and reducing gambling harm.

You can see some of the things I've delivered here.

But there is always more to do. I want to hear from you with your ideas about how we can make our city a safer, more welcoming and more liveable place to call home.
