Mrs Dalton is inviting other MPs to come and speak at the basin rally.
"I would love National MPs Steph Cooke, Wes Fang, Perrin Davey, Melinda Paveyand John Barilaro to join me on the stage at Tocumwal," she said.
"I'd share my speaking spot with them and present a bipartisan alliance against the Basin Plan".
If you'd like to reserve a seat on the bus, you can call Mrs Dalton's office on 6962 6644 or by email at murray@parliament.nsw.gov.au
