Reports Say Ex–Green Youth Leader Jette Nietzard Takes Job in Lena Gumnior’s Bundestag Office

Labor-law privacy has kept confirmation and job details off the record.

Overview

  • Tagesspiegel, citing anonymous Green parliamentary sources, reports she started in Gumnior’s office on December 1.
  • Neither Jette Nietzard nor Lena Gumnior has confirmed the hire, and no title or duties have been disclosed.
  • Gumnior serves on the Bundestag’s legal committee and is a deputy member of the interior committee.
  • The reported move comes about a month after Nietzard left the Green Youth leadership following a controversy-laden year that included her defense of policing critiques and an “ACAB” sweatshirt post.
  • In a recent Die Zeit interview, Nietzard said she was weighing career options and needed to earn money again, adding she had “no sugardaddy.”
