Dear Friend,

Jacinda Ardern has just announced that the 2020 General Election will happen on 19 September.

In effect, that means the campaign starts right now. All signs suggest we are looking at the most competitive election for a first-term Government in a generation.

A close election means all bets are off for how much the politicians will promise to buy themselves an election victory.

Chip-in to strengthen the voice for taxpayers, fiscal restraint and transparency during the 2020 campaign. <[link removed]>

Jacinda Ardern and her Government have already blown the surplus with their huge spending increases to date. They will spend every cent (and more) to secure a second-term Labour-Green coalition, even if it means increasing taxes on you and your family.

In fact, the lolly scramble begins tomorrow as Grant Robertson is set to announce a $12 billion splurge. That’s twelvethousand million — nearly $7,000 per Kiwi household.

Unless the Taxpayers' Union springs into action, this election will boil down to a bidding war. Our team have a plan to make sure Lower Taxes, Less Waste, More Transparency is at the heart of the debate — but we need your help to put it into practice.

Thanks to the support from thousands of New Zealanders like you, last year's 'Axe this Tax' campaign successfully defeated Michael Cullen's proposed capital gains tax. In 2020 we must step up to fight an even bigger threat: a Labour-Green coalition that has its eyes on your wallet.

Thank you for your support. <[link removed]>
