Steep template from Hesse: Greens sense morning air with the debt brake. SPD applauds Rhine's debt brake statement.

Juso chairman Philipp Türmer once again called for a reform of the debt brakes. The SPD and the Greens in particular are campaigning for a debt brake reform. The CDU/CSU and FDP reject it. But there are also a number of CDU politicians who are fundamentally open to change. These include Berlin's Governing Mayor Kai Wegner, Saxony-Anhalt's Prime Minister Reiner Haseloff and Rhine.
