Highlighting the significance of social support systems in government, three Cabinet members advocate for a robust welfare state. - Emphasizing the essential role of society's welfare, three cabinet members underscore its significance
In a joint effort to support the unemployed, social ministers from Rhineland-Palatinate, Hesse, and Saarland have come together to discuss ways to reintegrate employable individuals back into the workforce.
Dörte Schall, the social minister of Rhineland-Palatinate, has been vocal about the need to enable and support unemployed people in securing socially insured employment. She believes that any further development of unemployment benefits should be focused on this goal.
Meanwhile, Chancellor Friedrich Merz (CDU) has expressed concerns about the financial viability of the current welfare state. He suggests that around ten percent of the costs for unemployment benefits could be saved.
Despite these differences, the SPD social ministers and ministers from the three states have united in their opposition to any reduction of the welfare state. They are working together to find solutions that will help unemployed individuals find work, rather than cutting benefits.
The Social Congress Rhein-Main-Saar, which is scheduled for the autumn, will bring together the three ministers for discussions on this important issue. The ministers participating in the congress are Heike Hofmann from Hesse, Dörte Schall from Rhineland-Palatinate, and Magnus Jung from Saarland.
As the discussion on unemployment benefits and the welfare state continues, it is clear that the focus is on finding ways to support unemployed workers and help them reintegrate into the workforce. The joint efforts of the social ministers from Rhineland-Palatinate, Hesse, and Saarland are a positive step towards this goal.
