politics
Banzer has been a member of the Christian Democratic Union of Germany (CDU) since 1971. From 1976 to 1980 he was district chairman of the Junge Union in the Hochtaunus district . He was state chairman of the Ring of Christian Democratic Students (RCDS) and at times also a member of the student parliament of the University of Frankfurt.
In 1982 he became district chairman of the CDU Hochtaunus and remained so until 1984, when he moved to the state executive committee of the CDU Hessen, of which he is still a member. He has also been district chairman of the CDU since 2003.
From 1981 to 1991 Banzer was a city councilor in his place of residence in Oberursel . From 1981 to 1985 he also chaired the main and finance committee of the district assembly of the Hochtaunuskreis and from 1985 to 1991 was also chairman of the CDU district parliamentary group.
From February 5, 1991 to November 23, 2005 Jürgen Banzer worked as a full-time district administrator of the Hochtaunus district (for the election results, see Elections in the Hochtaunus district ). In 2001 a district-wide “volunteer agency” was set up under his direction, which supports voluntary work. As district administrator, he initiated the Hochtaunus district's school building and renovation program with over 500 million euros. Banzer campaigned in particular, but unsuccessfully, for the merger of the Hochtaunuskreis and the Main-Taunus-Kreis. He was also successfully involved in the localization of state authorities at the lower administrative level (e.g. the lower water authorities).
On November 23, 2005, Jürgen Banzer became Minister of State of the State of Hesse and a member of the Hessian state government under Prime Minister Roland Koch . Jürgen Banzer's position as Minister of State was linked to the following offices:
- Minister of Justice of the State of Hesse
- Member of the Federal Council for the State of Hesse
- Member of the Legal Committee
- Deputy member in the mediation committee of the German Bundestag and the Bundesrat
- Deputy member of the Franco-German friendship group for the state of Hesse
- Deputy member of the German-Russian friendship group for the state of Hesse.
In the state elections in Hesse in 2008 on January 27, 2008, Jürgen Banzer entered the Hessian state parliament as the directly elected constituency member of the Hochtaunus II constituency . Even in the early state elections in Hesse in 2009 , he won his constituency confidently.
After the state elections in 2009, the FDP claimed Banzer's ministry and was able to prevail. Jürgen Banzer was therefore appointed Minister for Labor, Family and Health of the State of Hesse on February 5, 2009. Shortly after taking office, he renamed the Ministry of Social Affairs "Ministry of Labor, Family and Health". After the resignation of Prime Minister Roland Koch, he did not receive a new ministerial office in the new state government under Volker Bouffier , but remained a member of the state parliament and is chairman of the inquiry commission on migration and integration of the Hessian state parliament. He is the deputy chairman of the parliamentary group.
Banzer has been volunteering for the German Red Cross in the Hochtaunus district association, of which he is chairman , since 2002 .
