SPD district chairman Mehltretter warns: social justice in danger!

In a gripping annual general meeting, Andreas Mehltretter, the old and new district chairman of the SPD in the Freising district, committed the Social Democrats to two challenging years. "The Bundestag election is about defending the social against conservatives and democracy against right -wing extremists," said Meihrtter and directed a clear declaration of war to the CDU/CSU. He criticized Friedrich Merz Scharf, who had announced that he did not put his cabinet equally, but after suitability. "This is a slap in the face of all women," said Meilretter, who emphasized that the SPD fights for the 95 percent of the citizens that are the real top performers of society.

progress in the women's shelter

Herbert Bengler, the chairman of the district parliamentary group, reported on the positive developments in building a new women's shelter in Freising. A generous donation of three million euros brings the district closer to this important goal. "The planning is in full swing, since the donation is also tied to a timely implementation," explained Bengler and underlined the importance of this project for the Social Democrats.

But not everything is rosy: Bengler expressed his concerns about the financial situation of the Freisinger Hospital, which has to struggle with a loss again this year. He sees the blame for the Bavarian state government, which does not comply with its duty to compensate for the deficit of the district. "We as a SPD continue to be with our clinic for all difficulties," he emphasized. The financial situation of the district also gives him a headache, especially with regard to the district levy. With a expected deficit between 15 and 20 million euros, an increase in the circular levy is likely, which could put a lot of strain on the municipalities.

In the new elections, meal rescuers were confirmed in his office as district chairman. At his side, Michael Weindl, Melanie Bauer and Bengler are representatives. Victor Weizenegger was elected as secretary and Keno Horn as cashier. The challenges are great, but the SPD is determined to fight for the interests of the citizens.
