Dear [Name], Did you hear about New Zealand First’s announcement yesterday? New Zealand First has introduced a Member’s Bill that would protect New Zealanders’ ability to use cash. The Bill will provide for the enduring use of cash as a private, accessible, and reliable method of payment. People who rely on cash due to barriers to digital banking deserve assurance that cash will be preserved in the increasingly digital world. The “Cash Transactions Protection Bill” would mandate vendors in trade to accept cash payments for goods valued up to $500. The Bill acknowledges that cash is a critical tool for vulnerable populations like those in rural communities, the elderly, and low-income earners who may experience barriers to digital banking. It mandates that vendors accept cash payments and have sufficient cash infrastructure to support access to cash and its circulation. “By protecting the sanctity of cash transactions, the Bill upholds personal privacy, maintains sovereign control over New Zealand’s monetary system, and lessens the risks posed by digital-only payment systems.” – Winston Peters [Name], we know that many of our supporters feel strongly about this policy. Do you agree?
