Alliance Greens discuss program for Saxon state elections

The Saxon Greens want to discuss their program for the state elections on 1 September at a party conference in Neukieritzsch near Leipzig on Friday (from 6 p.m.).

The Greens want to define goals for the coming years in a new climate protection law, among other things. The party is aiming for an orderly coal phase-out well before 2038. Photovoltaics should be used more, with the public sector leading the way. In addition, Saxony is to become a pioneer in wind power instead of lagging behind. Under the heading "Enabling sustainable living", the ideas for securing the natural foundations of life are also listed.

The Greens had already made it clear in advance that they wanted to maintain their course regardless of the mood in the state. The state list of Bündnis 90/Die Grünen is to be drawn up at a party conference in Chemnitz in mid-March.

In the 2019 state elections, the party received 8.6% of the vote in Saxony. In current polls, it currently stands at 7.0 percent. According to the Greens, they currently have 3,600 members in Saxony.
