Reichinnek: Diet increase as a scandal - donation for the good thing!

Berlin, Deutschland - The leader of the Left faction, Heidi Reichinnek, plans to donate her upcoming diet increase and has thus caused a sensation in public. In a contribution in the "Berlin Playbook Podcast" by Welt expressed their concerns about the discrepancy between the income of the income of MPs and the reality of life of many people. Your initiative aims to mark the financial increase as a "scandal".

The monthly salary of MPs is 11,227.20 euros. Based on the nominal wage development, this compensation will be increased by 606 euros on July 1, 2025, so that it will be almost 12,000 euros, which is based on Bundesag.de represent. Christian Görke, the parliamentary manager of the left, also sees a problematic development in this adaptation.

donation plans and political message

Reichinnek has announced that it will donate a significant sum of the additional 606 euros: 1,700 euros will be to your group association at the federal level, 700 euros at the state level, 300 euros, 200 euros to the left youth and 300 euros. In addition, the support of organizations such as their union, Proveg and the ADFC is also planned to set socio -political accents.

This decision comes at a time when the Bundestag is expected to vote on the diet increase on Thursday. Reichinnek intends to apply for a name to apply so that the public can understand how the MPs stand for this increase. She is optimistic that many of her colleagues will share their argument and vote against the increase in order to set a sign of social context.

criticism of adaptation

The criticism of the increase in diet not only focuses on the height, but also on the fact that it is not in line with the current social challenges and realities of life of the population. Reichinnek emphasizes that the compensation of MPs requires adequate consideration of their responsibility, their burden and the importance of their office, which is determined in the context of the MP Act. The increase in these diets is an important discussion in the political landscape of Germany.

In the broader political debate, the independence of the MPs, which is to be secured by adequate compensation, is to be ensured, as stated in Article 48 (3) of the Basic Law. However, this need often dies in the face of current living conditions.

It remains to be seen how the coordination in the Bundestag will go and whether Reichinnek's initiative can actually do a change in the perception of the diets of the MPs. Regardless of the decision, she shows through her planned donation that necessary political changes should be in accordance with the social needs of the citizens.
