To Prime Minister Christopher Luxon and all members of the New Zealand Parliament:

We urge you to reject the bill that seeks to dismantle the Treaty of Waitangi. This treaty is a cornerstone of justice and reconciliation, protecting Māori rights and addressing past injustices. By upholding the treaty, Parliament can honor its commitment to equity and ensure a future where Māori communities are respected.

Stand with the Māori people ✊
Yesterday, the walls of New Zealand parliament echoed with the sounds of Indigenous Māori resistance. as the country’s youngest parliamentarian led her people in a traditional haka dance to protest the erasure of their rights and their culture.

And this is just the beginning.

Ten of thousands of people have taken to the streets to march against a dangerous new bill that attacks fundamental Māori rights - and allies on the ground need us to show up too.

Will you stand in solidarity with the Māori people? Sign and share now to support them as they call on lawmakers to cancel the bill:
