MPs in custody
Krüger also said that during the debate and vote in the Reichstag on March 23, 1933 on the “Law to Eliminate the Need of the People and the Reich”, ie the “Enabling Act”, all 84 MPs of the KPD had already been imprisoned or fled. The same applies to 26 SPD members, the remaining faction of the SPD had courageously voted against despite all intimidation.
In contrast, the opposition parties in the Bundestag are of course not only present, they also have all rights. Ultimately, the aim of the Enabling Act was to abolish the republic, the aim of the Infection Protection Act was to protect the population, the economy and the state for the duration of a pandemic of the century.
The President of the Federal Office emphasized: “The Infection Protection Act puts the applicable ordinances to combat the pandemic on a constitutional basis. Our parliament will still be able to act without restriction tomorrow and can repeal the Infection Protection Act at any time. “
Reichstag disempowered
In contrast, according to the Enabling Act, the Reichstag met only 19 times until 1942 and then not at all until 1945. It was a sham parliament in which only seven laws were passed, compared to almost 1,000 laws that were decreed by the Reich government.
On Wednesday, several thousand people demonstrated in the Bundestag against the Infection Protection Act and sometimes drew a parallel between the Infection Protection Act and the Enabling Act.
