Political offices

Local politics

From 1996 to 2000 she belonged to the municipality of Kakenstorf ( joint municipality Tostedt ) and as an additional member of the social committee of the joint municipality. Since 2001 she has been a member of the city ​​council of Buchholz in der Nordheide , the local council in Trelde and, since 2006, deputy mayor of Trelde. She represents the Liberals in the City Council in the Committee on School, Children, Youth, Family and Seniors, the Economic and Social Committee and in the Works Committee.

She has been a member of the district assembly for the FDP since 2011. She represents the FDP in the committee for order and fire protection and in the social committee. In addition, she is a deputy member of the youth welfare committee and the "Kreisvolkshochschule advisory board" committee. She is also a member of the supervisory board of Buchholz und Winsen gGmbH.

The woman from Lower Saxony ran as a direct candidate in the Buchholz state election in the 2008 state elections . With 7.6% of the first votes, she came fourth behind the candidates from the Greens , the SPD and the CDU .

Federal politics

She was set up by the FDP as a direct candidate for the Bundestag constituency of Harburg for the 2009 Bundestag election . Here Bracht-Bendt received 10.8% of the first votes and with this result was behind the current parliamentary manager of the CDU parliamentary group Michael Grosse-Brömer and the former Environment Minister of Lower Saxony Monika Griefahn from the SPD. However , in 2009 it moved into the Bundestag via the 6th place on the state list of the FDP Lower Saxony .

She was also represented in the sports committee and in the children's committee of the Bundestag, where her focus was u. a. coping with the grief of children of divorce and leisure activities for young people. The Trelderin was a member of working groups II (economy and finance) and working group VI (innovation, society and culture) of the FDP parliamentary group. She was also an alternate member of the Finance Committee and the Tourism Committee. She was also the women's and senior spokeswoman for the FDP parliamentary group and chairwoman of the committee for family, senior citizens, women and youth .

In the Bundestag she spoke out in part against the euro rescue measures : Bracht-Bendt approved the Monetary Union Financial Stability Act, the Stabilization Mechanism (2010) and the expansion of the euro rescue umbrella (2011), but not the later measures.

In the sports committee she spoke out for equal treatment of doping cases in West and East Germany. Another concern of the Lower Saxon woman is equal pay for women and men. In her opinion, the differences in wages are particularly large on the upper floors. She rejects a statutory quota for women as disproportionate. She supports companies with a voluntary quota for women. One of Nicole Bracht-Bendt's concerns is age-appropriate living. In construction and renovation projects, greater attention should be paid to barrier-free access. The compatibility of work and the care of relatives is important.

Nicole Bracht-Bendt was a member of the parliamentary group Life and Cancer until 2013 as a contact person for experts and self-help groups.

When her party failed to pass the five percent hurdle in the 2013 federal election , she left the Bundestag in October 2013. Bracht-Bendt tried to win the direct mandate with a very elaborate election campaign in her constituency. However, it failed far behind with only 3.4% of the votes cast and was thus still behind the failed candidates of the Left and the AfD . In Lower Saxony, despite the huge loss of votes, she achieved the FDP's best first vote result. In a nationwide comparison, it achieved one of the best FDP first vote results.

Nicole Bracht-Bendt is the patron of the quality seal for children and youth hospices. Nicole Bracht-Bendt is also on the home advisory board of a nursing home. She is a member of the Citizens Prize Jury . The Buchholzerin does a voluntary social internship every summer. She is also active in the Vierdörfer rural women's association and, according to her own statements, also takes care of people with dementia. In 2011, the Lower Saxon hosted the award ceremony for a special prize at the LIGNA in Hanover for the “ German Sawmill and Wood Industry Association ” .
