State politics and party offices

From 1990 to 2001 Jansen was a member of the Greens. She was on the Lübeck district board from 1991 to 1993. She was state chairman from 1996 to 1997. She joined the PDS in 2005 and was state chairman from 2006 to 2008. From 2007 to 2008 she was also the district chairman of the Left in Lübeck.

In the state elections in Schleswig-Holstein in 2009 , Antje Jansen was elected to number 1 on the state list of the left in the state parliament. She was a member of the Submissions Committee and the Social Committee as well as a deputy member of the Home and Legal Committee and the Environment and Agriculture Committee. In 2011 and 2012 she was chairman of the group. In the state elections in Schleswig-Holstein in 2012 , Jansen ran again as the top candidate. However, the left failed with an election result of 2.2 percent at the five percent threshold and Jansen left the state parliament. Since then it has only been active at the municipal level.

Local politics

During her local political activity in the Lübeck citizenship , Jansen was chairman of the Greens parliamentary group from 1994 to 2000, then until 2003 a non- party and non-attached member , after her return from 2008 to 2016 chairwoman of the parliamentary group of the Left and from 2016 to 2018 of the parliamentary group Green-Alternative-Links (GAL). Since the local elections in 2018, she has been chairman of the GAL / Free Voters group .

She was a member of the Greens' citizenship, resigned from the party in 2000 because the Greens agreed to German participation in the Kosovo war , but kept her seat in the citizenship . She got the backing of the Lübeck PDS, with which she worked from then on. For the 2002 Bundestag election she was nominated by the PDS as a non-party direct candidate. In 2003 she left the citizenry. Jansen ran in the local elections in 2008 as the top candidate of the left and moved back into the citizenship.

On March 31, 2016, Jansen resigned from the Left Party and its local parliamentary group after protracted conflicts in her district association. The left then lost its group status. Jansen again retained her citizenship mandate. Together with four local politicians who had resigned from the Green parliamentary group, she participated in the establishment of a new local parliamentary group called Green-Alternative-Links (GAL), which until the end of the 2018 legislative period without running for local elections would be the third-strongest political force in the citizenry posed. In the local elections in 2018 , the newly founded electoral community GAL won a mandate and Jansen moved back into the citizenship as the top candidate. Since then she has formed a parliamentary group there with the representative of the Free Voters party, which she has also chaired.
