The Green Party has selected Waikanae resident Asher Wilson-Goldman as their candidate for the new Kapiti electorate at this year’s general election.
“I can’t wait to share the Greens’ positive vision for Aotearoa with Kapiti residents,” said Asher Wilson-Goldman.
“For too many people in our electorate, it’s harder now than it was three years ago to put food on the table and keep a roof over our heads.
“The Greens have a plan to see nature thrive, and for everyone to have what they need to live a good life.
“I’ve helped lead some of the public sector’s largest pieces of work, so I understand the power of the public sector to improve lives, when we have a Government that supports them to do it.
“Locally I’ve volunteered my time helping to set up Predator Free Kāpiti Coast, sorting through donations to the Kāpiti Foodbank, and advising Council on improving walking, cycling and horse riding access for recreation and transport.
“I’m a relentless advocate for Kāpiti every chance I get, and I’d love to take my voice to Parliament to fight for better healthcare, better housing and real action on climate change.
“By giving your party vote to the Greens this November, you’ll be part of our movement for stronger communities and a healthy planet,” said Asher Wilson-Goldman.
