Honor for Voluntary Service – TMV Appoints Taxpayers' President as Taxi Ambassador
The certificate was handed over in the presence of TMV President Thomas Kroker, Chief Executive Patrick Meinhardt, and Office Manager Nico Höttges. In the reasoning for the award, the association praises Holznagel's commitment to fair regulatory policy, his advocacy for honorable entrepreneurship, and his clear stance on the importance of taxis in public transportation.
Holznagel, who visibly surprised accepted the award, was pleased:
"The taxi is simply the best way to quickly get from A to B in Berlin. And it is clear: The middle class must stick together."
The new ambassador recently emphasized with a photo from a taxi on social media how naturally he uses the trade—even on the way to political discussions. A signal that the TMV was happy to pick up on.
The Fourth Ambassador
With Holznagel, the association now counts the fourth prominent supporter among its "Taxi Ambassadors." Previously, CDU transport expert Michael Donth, SPD representative Tino Schopf, and former State Secretary Hartmut Höppner were honored with the title.
For the TMV, the award is not only a symbol but part of a strategic network maintenance. The proximity to the Federation of Taxpayers is deliberately sought, according to Kroker and Meinhardt. Both organizations share the goal of reducing bureaucracy and providing tax relief to medium-sized businesses. In times of increasing regulations, the taxi industry finds itself under growing pressure – and seeks alliances across sectors.
With the new "ambassador" by their side, these alliances should become even more visible in the future. This, as can be heard between the lines, is political craftsmanship – in the best sense.
