politics

Schraps advocates a strong Europe that he does not want to see “reduced to material questions, to the economy and competition”. Economic and monetary union should be accompanied by an equal “social union” and a so-called “social progress clause” should be introduced. She should ensure that all EU measures are checked for their social impact. With the background of his constituency on the border with North Rhine-Westphalia, he advocates federalism as a form of regional cooperation between states and neighboring regions.

Not a single meter of the motorway runs through his constituency in the Weser Uplands, he writes, and wants to campaign for good road and rail connections and the expansion of the digital infrastructure with broadband coverage. He sees the Weserbergland nature park and the Solling-Vogler region as valuable assets for tourism and recreation; he wants to expand the Weserradweg and the Weser Uplands as a hiking region.

Schraps is a member of the non-partisan European Union Germany , which is committed to a federal Europe and the European unification process.

He is head of the Bundestag delegation to the Baltic Sea Parliamentary Conference .
