About this episode
The Albanese Government is muscling up for a fight on its key environmental reform bill, the Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation (EPBC) Act.
Labor says it will work with the Greens or the Coalition to pass the legislation, but both sides have raised concerns.
It comes after EPBC report lead author Graeme Samuel accused the Opposition of standing in the way of the reforms. So, is this shaping up to be the biggest parliamentary test the second term Albanese government has faced?
Patricia Karvelas and Jacob Greber break it all down on Politics Now.
