About the Open Letter

Who is organising this open letter? 

The signatories of this open letter on tax have been supported by Tax  Justice Aotearoa and Oxfam  Aotearoa.  We are grateful to have received advice from the international network Millionaires  for Humanity, and we were inspired by this example of an international open letter calling for increased taxation on wealthy people.

I’d like to sign! 

Adding your name is as simple as filling out the form.

I’ve signed the letter and I love this cause!  What other ways can I support this project? 

Thank you for signing the open letter! Here are some other ways of providing support:

  • Consider making a donation to Tax Justice Aotearoa. This project has been done with huge volunteer support, and your financial contributions will help to extend our work.

  • Write an article or a letter to the newspaper or to your MP.  We can support you with templates, key messages, and advice - just get in touch! 

  • Talk to your friends and family about why more tax is needed, why this additional tax should be coming from  those of us who can afford it most, and why you are personally prepared to pay more.  Let’s change the narrative - tax is something positive which we all benefit from!

Will I need to talk with the media? 

We have signatories who have volunteered to be spokespeople, so you won’t need to talk with the media. If you are approached, you can direct media to the contacts on this page. However if you would like to be a spokesperson, please let us know!
