Fast agreement on big changes

142

The leaders of the parties agree now. They talk for 8 hours on Wednesday. They talk in the office of the Chancellor. Now they have a result. This is earlier than planned.

The government plans a big package of changes. The changes shall make Germany more modern. People with low pay pay less tax. This starts on 1 January 2027.

The parties argue about the money. The SPD wants higher taxes for rich people. The Union does not want that. They make a trade. The Union changes their mind on taxes. The SPD changes rules for work.

The law for voting changes too. Winners of a area get a seat. This is safe. The government wants less paper work. The work for firms gets easier.

The leaders show the plans on Thursday. They want to show good team work. This is important for the next vote.
