Act

After graduating from high school in 1966 at the humanistic old grammar school in Bremen , Bernd Vetter studied law in Hamburg and Bremen from 1967 to 1975 . From 1976 to 1979 he did a legal traineeship in Hamburg. During this time he was for several years chairman of the staff council for court trainees and shop steward of the public services, transport and traffic union . Vetter has been working as a lawyer primarily in tenancy law since 1980.

In the 1970s he began working in tenants' initiatives and neighborhood groups. He is one of the co-founders of the Hamburg tenants' association Tenants help tenants and is co-author of the tenancy law manual for tenants . In the federal party Die Grünen he had a number of functions, including in the federal main committee. He also served on the Hamburg state board of the Green Alternative List Hamburg and on the Hamburg-North district board ,

In 1982 Bernd Vetter was elected as a member of the Hamburg parliament. He mainly worked in the Committee on the Constitution, Rules of Procedure and Election Review, the Legal Affairs Committee and the New Home Parliamentary Committee of Inquiry . At the end of February 1985 he resigned from the citizenry. According to the regulations of the GAL at that time, elected representatives should give up their office within the electoral period in order to enable further party members to serve as members of parliament. In this way, a detachment of the politicians from the grassroots should be avoided if possible. His successor was the dock worker Thomas Kowsky .

As a lawyer, Vetter gained national recognition when he commissioned a tenant initiative to run the real estate company Bayerische Hausbau as the owner of the " Esso-houses " in Hamburg because of massive violations of the Hamburg Housing Protection Act (HmbWoSchG) in the form of "years or even decades of neglect of maintenance obligations the owners ”indicated.
