Breaking News: AfD's Take on Baden-Württemberg's Municipal Tax
Stuttgart, June 18, 2025
The financial spokesperson for the AfD fraction, Emil Sänze MdL, has openly supported Tübingen's mayor, Boris Palmer, in opposing the contemplated reduction in trade tax. This announcement came during Palmer's interview on Tagesschau.
"It's high time we acknowledged the mess we've created by recklessly stimulating the economy with debt-fueled investments and targeted tax breaks," Sänze declared. "Those very same ministers who claim they want compensation now, were enthusiastically approving constitutional amendments that will trigger a fiscal crisis. It's absurd that the federal government is distributing cash incentives while expecting cities to pick up the bill."
Sänze argued that long-term fiscal relief can only be achieved by expanding the financial freedom of municipalities. "The AfD advocates for an increase in local shares of income and value-added tax," he asserted.
As the press spokesperson for the AfD fraction in the State Parliament of Baden-Württemberg, Sänze's comments suggest a strong opposition to financial burdens on municipalities. The broader political orientations of the AfD, as a far-right, right-wing populist, and national-conservative party, tend to lean towards stricter fiscal policies and the lifting of unnecessary tax burdens.
