On Monday, the CDU will confirm its course in migration policy at its party convention. “We are facing a genuine directional decision” said parliamentary business manager Thorsten Frei (CDU) to the “Rheinische Post” (Monday’s edition). “It has now become apparent that nothing will change in migration policy with the SPD and the Greens.”
This also applies to economic policy. In contrast, the Union wants to introduce an immediate program, including reducing the electricity tax and network charges, pushing back bureaucracy, exempting overpayment supplements from taxation and introducing an active pension. “Those who continue to work in retirement on a voluntary basis will receive their salary up to 2,000 euros per month tax-free.” The Union is going “full throttle” to bring the country forward again.
The CDU plans to pass a program of 15 measures for more security and prosperity at its party convention.
