Dirk Bergner (born January 13, 1965 in Leipzig ) is a German politician ( FDP ). He is deputy state chairman of his party in Thuringia and was a member of the Thuringian state parliament from 2009 to 2014 and has been again since 2019 . There he is deputy parliamentary group leader of the FDP and vice-president of the state parliament.

Life

Bergner graduated from high school in Leipzig in 1983. He studied civil engineering at the University of Architecture and Construction in Weimar (the forerunner of today's Bauhaus University ), which he graduated in 1991 as a graduate engineer in the field of road construction. He then worked for two years as a site manager in Munich and has since worked as a freelance in planning and construction supervision, including in Greiz , Hohenleuben and Jena .

Bergner has been involved in local politics since 1994 and was chairman of the building committee in his city from 1996 to 2010. He has been honorary mayor of the city of Hohenleuben since 2010 and a member of the district council in the district of Greiz since 2004 . He has been a member of the FDP district executive in Greiz since 2003 and has been its chairman since 2005. In 2004 he became a member of the FDP state board of Thuringia , where he was elected deputy FDP state chairman in 2008.

When the FDP succeeded in returning to the state parliament after 15 years in the state elections in Thuringia in 2009 , Bergner was elected to the state parliament over number 5 on the state list. He was the parliamentary director of his group and a member of the interior committee. In the state elections in 2014 , the FDP left the state parliament, which also meant that Bergner, who ran for third place on the FDP state list, lost his mandate. In September 2015, after the resignation of the previous FDP state chairman Franka Hitzing , he took over provisional management of the state association in his capacity as the longest-serving deputy state chairman. On November 29, 2015, he ran at a special party conference in Stadtroda to elect the new state chairman, but lost 58 to 85 votes to Thomas L. Kemmerich .

For the state elections in Thuringia in 2019 , Bergner stood in the constituency of Greiz I and moved back into the Thuringian state parliament via the state list . Here Bergner was elected deputy chairman of the five-member FDP parliamentary group and vice-president of the Thuringian state parliament.
