Reese's $25,000 promotion may violate sweepstakes laws_我的网站

A |     新西兰中文先驱报 Kenny 报道 新西兰优先党党魁Winston Peters表示，尽管财政存在资金缺口，但优先党不打算对其竞选承诺打折。

B |          而国家党财政部长Nicola Willis否认存在56亿纽币的资金缺口。她只表示，在经过内阁讨论前，无法保证兑现7月减税的承诺。         Advertise with us          3月17日Peters在北帕发表国情咨文演讲时承认了政府财政存在资金短缺，他说原因在于“增长率并不像我们想象的那样”。

C |     Reese’s may be in violation of state and federal laws with its new sweepstakes offer currently advertised on packs of peanut butter cups.The promotion on two-cup packages reads “You could win $25,000” and, in smaller print, “See details inside.” But only after consumers have bought and opened a package can they see the small print: no purchase is necessary to enter the sweepstakes.The Reese's contest was first reported Monday by Edgar Dworsky, a consumer advocate and former assistant attorney general in Massachusetts, who runs the Consumer World website.Hershey Co., that Pennsylvania candymaker that owns the Reese’s brand, didn’t immediately respond to telephone and email messages left Monday by The Associated Press.Sweepstakes are primarily governed by state laws, which require that no purchase is necessary to participate. A contest that requires a purchase is a lottery, which is subject to different rules.Three federal agencies __ Federal Trade Commission, the Federal Communications Commission and the U.S. Postal Service __ also enforce laws governing sweepstakes depending on the medium. The Postal Service requires mailed sweepstakes offers to make clear that no purchase is necessary, for example. The FTC doesn't govern sweepstakes specifically, but has broad laws prohibiting “unfair and deceptive acts.”The FTC said Monday that it can’t comment on the practices of particular companies outside of an investigation. It wouldn’t confirm or deny an investigation against Hershey.Dworsky said a sign near Reese’s candy displays making clear that no purchase is necessary might meet legal requirements. But a spot check of candy displays in multiple states __ including California, Virginia and Washington __ found no such signs.Dworsky noted that Reese's ran a similar promotion earlier this year that ended in April using the same packaging. Some of those packages are still for sale, even though the sweepstakes code has expired, he said.Dworsky said he's concerned that the packaging could lure consumers into thinking they need to buy it.“You never have to pay to play. All these packages should be recalled," he said.。他说预计未来几年新西兰的经济增长将显著低于预期，当前经济处于“崩溃”状态。         被记者问道如果缺了56亿纽币联合政府是否还能兑现减税承诺时，Peters暗示说依然具备可行性，但具体如何实施有待确认。         “我们一直在进行联合谈判，看未来的建设道路可能是什么，”他说。

D |          资金不足引发人们对政府将如何兑现承诺的疑问，联合伙伴已经被迫在政策上做出妥协。如上周宣布恢复的负扣税，就没有像行动党和国家党联合协议中所承诺的那样，从2023年4月1日起回溯调整，而是改为今年4月1日起生效。         但Peters明确表示，他不会在优先党的承诺事项上做出妥协。这就意味着可能只有优先党的联合伙伴做出妥协了。         财政部长Nicola Willis表示，无法确认是否能够按照联盟协议约定的那样，在今年7月落实减税政策。在接受采访时Willis说，政府仍致力于在7月推出减税计划，但该计划需要经过内阁讨论。而且考虑到本届政府任期为三年，“我们有三份预算来兑现我们的承诺，我们不会用第一份预算来兑现我们的每一个承诺”。         Willis还否认财政存在56亿纽币的资金缺口。她说制定中的预算案“总体上是谨慎和保守的”。         她承认一些筹资计划（如赌博税）没能得到实现，但通过成本削减和其他收入来源能够支持减税计划的落实。         Peters也说新西兰仍然有减税的潜力，但经济基本面比大选时要糟糕得多，可能“对未来账簿产生数十亿纽币的影响”。         “可悲的是，这就是选举后的现实。我们的工作就是扭转局面和修复它。”          相关阅读：          总理Christopher Luxon公布百天计划！这“49项行动”最为紧迫          政府部长喊话领失业补贴的人：不要躺平，否则……          2024预算案时间定了！将包含减税计划          《2024年国情报告》发布，新西兰面临两个重大问题          政府今年将节省开支大举减税，有多少公务员会被裁？          Christopher Luxon国情咨文首秀：“我们的国家很脆弱”          新西兰将重置福利体系：“领完福利就躺平”不行了！          工党人事大洗牌！他辞职去当大学校长只因羁绊太深？          注：本文为编译/原创，欢迎转发分享；但严禁复制等未经授权的非法使用。违反上述声明者，本网将追究其相关法律责任。使用授权请联系[email protected]。         chineseherald.co.nz All Rights Reserved 版权所有          (责编：鸮鹦鹉)          相关内容                突发：奥克兰市中心戒严，美女警察持枪以待！           突发！新西兰南岛发生4.6级地震，数千人有感           奥克兰海域发现尸骸疑似中国公民 中领馆回应           高中生对未来副总理吐口水被停课，家长：孩子棒棒的！           新西兰“酒驾狂魔”再次违法开车！62岁大爷多次撞死人，永远在路上……           新西兰用什么来欢迎中国外交部长？           无名女尸细节披露：穿中国老纺织厂背心，华人社区成破案关键           基督城恐袭五周年：受害者伤痛还在，ACC已切断补偿。
