Dear Friend,

There are now just 200 days until the general election Jacinda Ardern has called for 19 September.

And things could not be closer.  According to the polls, just one or two percent is the difference between a change of government, and a Labour-Green coalition that would cost you and your family.

Friend, in the next few days the Taxpayers' Union will be finalising our pre-election campaign strategy. But we need to know what resources we have available. We need every dollar to take on Labour, the Greens, and New Zealand First who won't hesitate spending your money to get back into Government.

Despite a record high tax-take, Labour has already turned projected surpluses into a deficit. And that’s before the election campaign spend-up has even begun.

Chip-in to make sure there is a loud voice for taxpayers this election year. <[link removed]>

The National Party may not be much better. Unless we pressure National to commit to cutting wasteful government programmes, such as the ‘fees free’ policy which has seen fewer students head to university, don’t expect there to be much left for meaningful tax relief. 

In politics, the squeaky wheel gets the oil. That’s why the Taxpayers’ Union was founded 6 years ago — to stand up for taxpayers like you and be as loud a voice as possible.

But only with your support can we highlight wasteful spending, expose pork barrel bribes, and hold politicians to account for wasteful spending promises. <link>

Your donation will allow us to employ a new economist to analyse election policy costings and expose poor-quality spending before the taxpayer-funded cheques are written. Projects like our popular policy costing “Bribe-O-Meter” are 100% percent dependant on your support.

Can I count on you for $1 a day until the election?

To ensure the voice of taxpayers cannot be ignored, click here to make a one-off donation of $200. <[link removed]>

Or split it into a monthly amount, by clicking here to set up a monthly contribution of $28.57. <[link removed]>

Thank you for your support.
