CDU Thuringia celebrates 35 years: Merz inspires at comeback celebration!
The Thuringian CDU state parliament group celebrated its 35th anniversary last Sunday. Federal Chancellor Friedrich Merz was also present at this festive occasion as a guest of honor, which further lifted the mood. After ten years in opposition, the CDU not only took a look at its history with this celebration, but also celebrated its return to power. Around 1,000 guests were present at the event in the Weimarhalle, who applauded the festive speeches.
The parliamentary group leader Andreas Bühl was visibly pleased with the continued support from the party base. In his speech, he specifically addressed Merz's clear and explicit statements and emphasized how important it is that the CDU stands like a rock, especially in consternating times.
Economic challenges and political agenda
Despite the festive mood, there are also serious issues that concern society and the members of the CDU. Germany is perceived as a strong economy, but the reality is different: high energy prices, bureaucracy and a lack of skilled workers put companies and citizens under strain. People are increasingly questioning how meaningful work is in today's world and a change in policy is required to enable prosperity for all. These are points that are emphasized again and again in cdu.de.
Various measures are planned to counteract the tense economic situation. These include, among other things, the modernization of labor law, the recruitment of skilled workers and relief from income taxes and social security contributions. The commuter allowance should also be increased and the tax regulations simplified. These measures are intended to help companies remain competitive and promote innovation, especially in the areas of digitalization and artificial intelligence.
Social market economy and future prospects
The social market economy should not only be promoted through competition and growth, but also through a new basic security that could introduce the principle of “promoting and demanding”. In addition, considerations are being given to how pension and retirement provision can be secured in the long term so that younger generations in particular are given incentives to make an additional contribution to retirement provision.
In the coming years it will be important to achieve climate goals and advance environmental protection through international cooperation. Agriculture also plays a crucial role and should be promoted through innovative technologies and better framework conditions to ensure food security in Germany, as in [insuedthueringen.de].
The CDU celebration in Thuringia shows how important it is to stand together even in difficult times and not to lose sight of your own values and goals. The coming challenges will show whether the fresh approaches and political measures are fruitful and whether the CDU really has “a good hand” for the future.
