Carsten Paul Hütter (born June 19, 1964 in Unna ) is a German entrepreneur and politician ( AfD ). He has been a member of the Saxon State Parliament since 2014 and has been working for Martin Hebner ( Member of the Bundestag ) since July 1, 2018 . He is the consumer policy spokesman for his parliamentary group and has been deputy federal treasurer of the AfD federal party since November 2019.

Life

After training as a motor vehicle electrician in 1983, Hütter committed himself to the Bundeswehr as a contract soldier for 12 years . There he trained as a gun mechanic, tank fitter, authority driving instructor and gunner in a non-commissioned officer career. In 1994 he received his master craftsman's certificate as a motor vehicle mechanic in Dresden and opened a shop. He is the owner of a car dealership and runs an online shop on Ebay for auto parts.

Carsten Hütter is married and has five children. He lives in Marienberg in the Ore Mountains and is Roman Catholic .

Political commitment

Before joining the AfD, Hütter was a member of the CDU for ten years.

Alternative for Germany

Carsten Hütter was deputy state chairman of the AfD Saxony from 2013 to February 2016 and has been deputy treasurer in the state board since then. Hütter was in fifth place on the state list for the state elections in 2014 and moved into the Saxon state parliament through this. In 2016 he was elected by the AfD district association of Meißen in constituency 155 as a direct candidate in the 2017 federal election campaign. He received 31.1% of the first votes and was second place after the CDU candidate Thomas de Maizière .

Hütter is a member of the Interior Committee, the Parliamentary Control Commission and the NSU Investigation Committee of the Saxon State Parliament. He is the security policy spokesman for his group and is particularly responsible for religious and political extremism . He is also spokesman for church politics.

In autumn 2016, Hütter made a small inquiry about an alleged rape "in Maxim-Gorki-Park" and made it appear that the perpetrators were asylum seekers and that the authorities were covering up the case. The state government answered the request by stating that it was "not aware of any Maxim Gorki Park in the Free State of Saxony".

In June 2018, Hütter made a small inquiry about Sinti and Roma in Saxony, in which he asked, among other things, the number of Sinti and Roma and the main registration addresses in Saxony since 2010. This should be broken down "year by year into German and foreign Sinti and Roma". The small request for reproducing racist clichés is criticized. In addition, reference is made to parallels to National Socialism , in which lists and files of Jews, Sinti and Roma were drawn up before Hitler came to power . In addition, Herbert Heuss from the Central Council of German Sinti and Roma points out that Hütter should actually know "that in Germany state institutions are prohibited from applying ethnic criteria on the basis of Article 3 (3) of the Basic Law ". In his view, the AfD's request is therefore not aimed at information, but only at defamation of a minority group.

On September 1, 2019 won Hütter in the state election in Saxony in 2019 the constituency Meissen 1 as a direct candidate.

Positions

After the Saxon state elections in 2014, Hütter said that he “currently does not see a coalition with the CDU”. The AfD wants to "remain an independent party and not let us be crushed between the other parties like the FDP ".

According to the weekly newspaper Die Zeit from the beginning of 2015, Hütter is demanding a car toll for foreign vehicles and does not want German soldiers to be deployed abroad . In Hütters opinion, important issues for the AfD should also be “shortage of police officers, shortage of doctors, shortage of teachers, border crime and immigration”. He also speaks out against sexual education in schools. Hütter reacted to the Pegida protests in Dresden with understanding. Many of the demands correspond to the election manifesto of the AfD. In his opinion, NPD supporters or extremists were not represented there, but rather a cross-section of the population. Everyone in Germany also has the right to express their opinion freely. The Chemnitz MP advised his supporters against participating in the demonstration with riots in Chemnitz in order to avoid proximity to neo-Nazis and hooligans. After further demonstrations that were organized by the AfD and in which right-wing extremists also took part, Hütter said that the demonstrations were a success and that they pointed out grievances.

Hütter sees economic and infrastructure policy as his main areas of activity. In September 2017, after a pack of wolves attacked a herd of cattle in his district, Hütter called for wolves "to be declared huntable game and, above all, to remove so-called problem wolves from nature".

Hütter is committed to stronger action against extremism. Right-wing extremism such as that of the NSU should be massively fought using criminal law. However, he does not see the effort of the investigative committee set up for this as justified. However, Hütter sees the greater danger in Islamist and left-wing extremism - although he received the answer to his own parliamentary question that there are ten times more right-wing extremists in Saxony than other extremists. To combat extremism through education in schools, Hütter founded the association “Exfreisa” (short for “Extremism-free Saxony”). Several well-known representatives from the New Right and from the area around Pegida are organized in the association, which so far has only sponsored a school newspaper in Weißwasser that is politically close to the AfD and collects donations from unknown donors . Hütter also called for a ban on anti-fascist action , which he sees as serious criminals and radical left-wing terrorists. Left-wing extremist organizations should not be supported by the state. A corresponding application submitted by Hütter failed in the state parliament because there is no “Antifa” organization that can be banned and extremist organizations are already exempt from funding.
