He was 1st chairman of the SPD sub-district Schwandorf / Cham, member of the district executive of the East Bavarian SPD, deputy parliamentary group leader of the SPD in the Schwandorf district council , member of the city council of the city of Burglengenfeld and 1st deputy of the district administrator of the Schwandorf district. In 1978 he was the only member of parliament who won a direct mandate for the SPD in the Bavarian state parliament , of which he was a member until 1990. Zierer resigned from the SPD in the dispute.

WAA resistance

As the deputy district administrator in the district of Schwandorf ( Upper Palatinate ), Zierer resisted the instruction by the district president to issue the building permit for the Wackersdorf reprocessing plant . So the " Lex Schuierer " came into use and the district government of the Upper Palatinate granted the building permit. Zierer described this as a "lesson for authoritarian and not for democratic structures". While District Administrator Hans Schuierer was in the hospital, his representative Zierer judged this method of suppressing objections from citizens with: "Even a dictatorship would not have behaved much differently."
