Taxi meets Pacemaker – TMV Chief Meinhardt talks with CDU Manager Bilger
Meinhardt and Bilger share a common time in the Bundestag, which dates back to 2009. The personal connection is there, but the conversation had a clear political core: The future collaboration between the TMV and the Union faction, which still plays a central role in the Bundestag.
"With Steffen Bilger, we have someone in the party leadership who doesn't just know the transport sector from committee meetings," says Meinhardt.
Indeed: From 2018 to 2021, Bilger was a Parliamentary State Secretary in the Ministry of Transport, led the Parliamentary Circle for Electromobility, and negotiated the chapter on transport and infrastructure in the coalition agreement in 2017. In political Berlin, he is considered one of the prominent figures when it comes to infrastructure issues.
These are good prerequisites for the TMV. The taxi industry is under pressure—economically, politically, and technologically. Digitalization, platform providers, and questions of fair competition conditions are just some of the issues where the industry relies on reliable contacts in politics.
Bilger shows himself open:
"Infrastructure policy will be a focus in this legislative period," he says.
The Ludwigsburg member of the Bundestag is familiar with the day-to-day business, even beyond the capital city. He is aware of the role of taxis as part of public transport. Especially in rural areas, as he hints, he sees a need for action.
The meeting between the two is intended to be the starting point for closer cooperation. There are no concrete results yet - but the signal is clear: The dialogue between TMV and the Union is to be intensified. None of the participants deny that personal connections help in this regard. However, in the end, it will likely be decisive whether political movement arises from this.
