The Green Budget shows how much better our lives could be under a Green Government, instead of one dominated by corporate greed.
"This is a Budget for a country that belongs to and works for New Zealanders," says Green Party co-leader Chlöe Swarbrick.
"We believe in fairness and common sense. A Green Government will rapidly reduce emissions, reduce the cost of living and improve our quality of life.
"That means free GP visits, free Early Childhood Education, free dental care, an Income Guarantee to ensure no one falls below the poverty line, housing for all, a stable climate, clean air, clean water and clean soil.
"We can do this by taxing the wealthiest fairly.
"Or, we can continue to let our infrastructure crumble, kids go hungry and the healthcare system teeter on the edge of collapse, as the Government promises for their Budget next week.
"These are political choices. The Greens choose a country worth fighting for, instead of the Luxon Government's choices seeing New Zealanders leaving in record numbers.
"The Aotearoa we all deserve is entirely within our grasp. Our Green Budget is the detailed map, and in the coming weeks, we will be working with communities across Aotearoa to start our journey to making it a reality," says Chlöe Swarbrick.
