PLP Releases Comprehensive Platform: Building a Fairer, More Stable & Affordable Bermuda

This election is about the future. Bermudians deserve a detailed plan and clear vision for where we seek to take the country. Many have voiced concerns about Bermuda’s future and the rising cost of living, but few have outlined detailed ideas or actionable solutions to address these challenges.

The Progressive Labour Party (PLP) is offering a serious, detailed policy document—one that focuses on affordability, opportunity, and a fairer Bermuda for all.

Real Solutions for a Stronger Bermuda

The PLP’s pledges include workable, realistic solutions such as:

✅ Increasing oversight and controls over the cost of essential food 🛒
✅ Expanding investment in affordable housing 🏡
✅ Developing a Senior Daycare Center 👵🏽👴🏽
✅ Introducing absentee voting for eligible overseas students 🗳️
✅ Planning for a more climate-resilient infrastructure 🌱
✅ Expanding coverage under HIP & FutureCare 🏥

A Platform Built by Bermudians, for Bermudians

The PLP’s comprehensive platform was shaped by Bermudians from all walks of life. Every policy, initiative, and goal is a reflection of conversations we’ve had with families, workers, and businesses across the island.

🔹 Informed by real discussions at the doorstep 🏡
🔹 Crafted by a balance of experienced stalwarts & next-generation leaders 👥
🔹 Rooted in practical, achievable solutions 🎯

Unlike vague promises from the opposition, our platform is detailed, actionable, and already in motion. Many of our ideas—like the food co-op and the senior daycare center—are already underway.

Unlike the OBA, who have presented a thin eight-page pamphlet with no real plan, the PLP is delivering a roadmap for real progress.
