Federal Member for Flynn, Colin Boyce is all systems go after the Prime Minister called a federal election for May 3.
Mr Boyce said under Labor, regional Australians are poorer and being hit with higher taxes, higher grocery prices and higher energy bills.
"Anthony Albanese and Labor have hung rural and regional Australia out to dry," Mr Boyce said.
"Our community can't afford another three years of this Labor Government.
"As the local Federal Member for Flynn, I'm advocating for our community including for better local healthcare, stronger telecommunications infrastructure and to protect Central Queensland's future.
"The Flynn electorate generates an enormous amount of income and as such we should be given a lot more share of the economic pie.
"I am fully committed to the Flynn electorate and have made a concerted effort to visit and speak with as many local communities as I can.
"Whether you live in the Central Highlands to the West, Gracemere to the North, Gladstone to the East, Wondai to the South or one of the towns in between, I am committed to ensuring strong representation for the Flynn electorate and I will continue to deliver for our region."
