Photo: S. Kaminski. I am Philip Kr\u00e4mer, born in 1992 in Frankfurt. I live with my wife and daughter in Darmstadt. Since 2021, I have been a member of the Bundestag for Southern Hesse. In parliament, I serve as deputy chair and spokesperson of the Sports Committee, am a member of the Defense Committee, and work on the Enquete Commission on Afghanistan. My political involvement began at the local level: I have been a city councilor in Darmstadt since 2016. In addition to my political work, I am also involved in voluntary work and am chair of the Darmstadt Child Protection Association. Five questions for Philip Kr\u00e4mer: How would you like to strengthen the educational landscape at the federal level, and how can schools and educational institutions in your constituency specifically benefit from this? We Greens want a strong education system that offers all children equal opportunities. With the \u20ac20 billion \"Start-Up Opportunities\" program, we laid a foundation for this in this legislative period. But our country needs significantly more: a joint education initiative to reach even more schools. With a \"Future Investment Program for Education,\" we want to work together with the federal states and municipalities nationwide and here in Southern Hesse to ensure greater equality of opportunity. What measures do you support at the federal level to better manage migration, and how do you intend to ensure that these are implemented in a socially responsible manner in your constituency? Migration is one of the greatest challenges of our time. We want to offer protection to people who have to flee war and political persecution. Currently, however, there is also an additional need for approximately 400,000 workers, which means: Germany needs skilled and skilled workers from abroad. Therefore, we need forward-looking integration. This includes ensuring that people who are seeking a home in Germany, in Southern Hesse, and who want to contribute, receive a visa quickly. We want to simplify and finally digitize the lengthy, bureaucratic procedures for the recognition of educational qualifications and professional credentials. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are considered the backbone of the German economy. What federal policy measures do you plan to strengthen SMEs, and how can you provide targeted support to companies in your region? We need a government that provides planning certainty and stands by its decisions. As Greens, we want to invest through a Germany Fund, linked to a reform of the debt brake. Unlike the CDU, we are presenting a plan for creating investments that will pay off \u2013 in infrastructure, digitalization, and research. Bureaucracy will be streamlined, for example, through faster permits and simplified grant applications. The large SME sector in Darmstadt and the surrounding region will also benefit from this. How do you intend to promote a sustainable energy transition nationwide, and how can local initiatives and projects in your constituency receive greater support? When it comes to climate protection, we are talking about protecting people, our prosperity, and our freedom and security. Climate protection and its effective and equitable implementation are essential. That is why we Greens want to introduce, among other things, a climate allowance for low and middle incomes, ensuring that people can embark on a climate-neutral future together. We are creating even more socially oriented funding programs, for example, for home renovations. Initiatives such as community wind farms and solar projects in Darmstadt or the surrounding district, such as the Ro\u00dfdorf Energy Community, should receive support more easily \u2013 through streamlined procedures and targeted funding programs. This strengthens regional economic development and protects our climate. What federal policy priorities are you setting to advance infrastructure development in your constituency, and how can you ensure that your region's interests are heard in Berlin? We are increasing investments nationwide for better mobility and digital networks. Darmstadt and the surrounding district should directly benefit from funding for local public transport, road and bridge repairs, and fiber optic expansion. Through clearly defined participation rights for municipalities and close cooperation with local representatives, we ensure that regional concerns carry weight in Berlin. Summary of the election platform for the 2025 election: We are committed to decisive climate protection: significantly reducing the electricity tax, building a hydrogen network, and rapidly expanding renewable energies. This will keep energy affordable, protect nature, and keep the goal of climate neutrality within reach. We will unite a strong economy and social justice through a Germany Fund, faster digital administration, and targeted support for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and skilled trades. Good education and affordable housing are top priorities on our agenda: Fair wages, reliable pensions, and modern infrastructure secure the future of all generations. Peace in freedom: Our security policy combines diplomacy, crisis prevention, and defense to preserve peace and prosperity. At the same time, we defend democracy and diversity, strengthen culture, civil society, and social cohesion. Together, we are shaping a just and sustainable country where everyone has the opportunity for a good life. This is what we stand for, and this is our promise. Back to overview.
