Jens Spahn, the leader of the CDU faction in the Bundestag, underscored the unique importance of the party’s federal congress that opened on Friday morning. “It’s the first Chancellor‑party conference in five years, which in itself is noteworthy” he said to “Bild”. When asked about the priority motion on housing, Spahn added that the CDU champions a nation where hard work pays off, emphasizing that those who contribute should be able to build a future. He stressed that home ownership is the first step and that a sturdy four‑wall home must be attainable for everyone-whether a vendor, a journeyman, or a care worker. With this focus, the party conference begins, reaffirming the promise of upward mobility that has shaped the country.
