politics

Since 1988 he has been a member of the "Greens", later "Bündnis 90 / Die Grünen". For several years he was district chairman of the Greens in the city of Passau and in the district of Passau, as well as district chairman of the Greens in Lower Bavaria. In the 90s he was a local councilor in Saldenburg, since 2002 local councilor in Neuburg am Inn, since 2008 a member of the district council of the Passau district, currently as chairman of the local parliamentary group of Bündnis 90 / Die Grünen.

From 2003 to 2013 Hallitzky was a member of the Bavarian State Parliament. He represented the Group of the Greens as financial policy spokesman in the "Committee on State Budget and Financial Matters". Between 2008 and 2013 he was a representative of the Greens in the Landesbank Commission, which was set up largely at his instigation. This examined billions in value adjustments of the Bayerische Landesbank as consequences u. a. bad speculation on the US mortgage markets and the purchase of Hypo Group Alpe Adria and a possible lack of control of BayernLB by the Bavarian state government.

In the 2013 elections, Hallitzky no longer ran for the top position of the Lower Bavarian Greens for the state elections and was not re-elected to the state parliament as a result of the poorer performance of the Greens in the elections in autumn 2013 compared to the previous election.

In October 2014 he was elected to succeed Dieter Janecek as the state chairman of the Bavarian Greens. In the first ballot he prevailed with 51% against his opponent Markus Büchler . On February 3, 2019, he was confirmed at the state party conference for a further two years in the office of state chairman; he prevailed with 194 of 313 votes against his challenger Hermann "Beppo" Brem . On July 14, 2020, Hallitzky announced that he would no longer take part in the next state delegates' conference and thus pave the way for a generation change.
