News Article: AfD's Proposal for Student Teacher Summer Unemployment Relief Rejected in Baden-Württemberg
The Alternative for Germany (AfD) faction in the State Parliament of Baden-Württemberg has proposed an amendment to the Civil Service Act over a year ago, demanding the release of student teachers into unemployment during the summer holidays. However, the Green-Black government, along with the SPD and FDP, rejected the proposal.
Dr. Rainer Balzer MdL, education spokesman of the AfD faction, claims that the government's actions are not about education policy or valuing future teachers, but purely about party political maneuvering. He states that the cost of implementing the AfD's law would be equivalent to the annual cost of operating two refugee homes.
The rejection of the AfD's proposal is due to the coalition's strategic allocation of funds favoring systemic, climate-conscious projects over short-term financial support measures. The Greens have proposed countermeasures where funding is explicitly earmarked for climate protection and related security issues, reflecting their policy focus and budget priorities.
Josef Walter, press spokesman for the AfD faction and head of the Press Office, expresses interest in seeing how long it will take for the AfD's law to be adopted by others. He can be reached at [email protected] or by phone at +49 151 14607482.
The visiting address for the AfD Faction in the State Parliament of Baden-Württemberg is Urbanstraße 32, House of Parliament: U32/305, 70182 Stuttgart. The contact telephone number for the faction itself is +49 711 2063-5042.
Dr. Balzer has accused the Green-Black government of hypocrisy in handling the summer unemployment of student teachers. He alleges that the government's rejection of the AfD's proposal was not based on policy considerations, but rather on the fact that it originated from the AfD.
The AfD's Press Office can be found within the House of Parliament. The SPD and FDP had detailed the necessity and benefit of the AfD's draft proposal in the state parliament, but their arguments were ultimately disregarded.
