“Greens have apparently not read the budget and government program”

“The Greens left a budget disaster to the new government. We have now taken on responsibility to bring Austria out of this misery again!”, Says Julia Herr, first SPÖ club chairman and SPÖ environmental spokesman. Instead of showing himself refined and admitting mistakes, the Greens would close their eyes to Austria before the past five years. “With this ‘foray of the allegations’, the Greens have proven: they obviously did not read the budget and government program. It’s time for facts!” ****

Tax sugar and overgrowths: “It can’t go out!”

Mr. calculates: “The predecessor has paid more than twice as many corporate funding as Germany during Corona. With the wasted money, climate protection projects such as the Semmering base tunnel could have been built twice! At the same time, it has reduced corporate taxes for corporations. know that this cannot go out! “

Austria’s economy is now shrinking for the third year in a row. The inflation fully beaten up, many people have become unemployed in recent years. “This made Austria European in the bottom! And the exuberant watering can encapsulation has not changed anything!” Said Herr. Now there are the first signs that Austria’s economy attracts again. “We invest in a targeted manner and will leave the crisis behind,” Herr is convinced.

Climate protection despite the budget hole

“The SPÖ is driving climate protection in the new government despite the budget hole!” Said Herr. After just a few weeks, the first SPÖ successes for climate protection are impressive:

• The heating boiler exchange will be replaced at 1.8 billion euros from 2026 after the pot under ex-minister Gewessler was suddenly cleared. A new, accurate special rail should ensure that heating, energy is saved and the economy is driven. Budgets are to be used efficiently in the future and achieve the greatest possible benefit for the climate.
• With the “Klimacheck”, all laws and regulations will be examined for their climate effectiveness. Before decision, projects on their effect on greenhouse gases and climate change adjustment are examined. The government also meets a demand for the climate venue and many climate NGOs.
• After the necessary budget renovation, the government is working on important laws, such as the climate law, which has been overdue for a good 1,600 days, the Electricity Economic Act or the Renewable Expansion Acceleration Act. We protect our climate and make energy more affordable and safer.

Social sensitivity and future investments

Kogler wondered what the SPÖ needs in the government for. Lord has the answer: “Under a Chancellor Kickl we had threatened pension cuts and at the same time tax gifts for corporations. We were able to prevent that. Banking, energy group levy, higher foundation taxes-with us our strong shoulders contribute more!” The government set targeted priorities that relieve people. “We put a social tact between blue lawn mower and green watering can. We have implemented the rental price stop and work on a rental price brake for everyone. We promote social housing, reduce prices for medication and invest 2025 and 2026 one billion euros in the best education for our children!” Said Herr. (Conclusion) MF/BJ
