Schnieder steps down, as Steiniger takes over leadership of the CDU state faction - Schnieder's CDU group leadership role passed on to Steiniger

Time to make way for the new kid on the block! Christian Baldauf, just 37 years old, has taken the reins from Patrick Schnieder as the chair of the CDU state group in Rhineland-Palatinate within the Bundestag. This move solidifies Baldauf's position as a mighty connection between state and federal politics, according to Rhineland-Palatinate union leader Gordon Schnieder.

With this new role, Baldauf, who also holds the title of general secretary of the CDU in Rhineland-Palatinate, becomes an even stronger voice in the political arena. It's like he went from sleeper cell to front-line commander overnight.

Gordon Schnieder, who happens to be Patrick Schnieder's own brother, stepped down as head of the CDU state group to join the ranks of the new federal government as the federal transport minister. A total of eleven CDU members make up the state group in the Bundestag.
