Life

[edit]

Baldy grew up in Münster-Sarmsheim in the Mainz-Bingen district, where he lived until summer 2023. He attended Stefan-George-Gymnasium in Bingen and studied history, Catholic religion and social studies to become a teacher at Johannes Gutenberg University Mainz between 2013 and 2020.In the summer of 2021, he completed his traineeship at Heinrich-Heine-Gymnasium in Kaiserslautern.[2][3] He now lives in Mainz, is married and is a Roman Catholic.[3]

Political career and positions

[edit]

In parliament, Baldy has been serving on the Committee on Family Affairs, Senior Citizens, Women and Youth and the Committee on Internal Affairs and Homeland Security.[4][5]

Baldy joined the SPD in 2011[2] and was chairman of Jusos Mainz-Bingen between 2014 and 2018.[6] He was first elected to the Münster-Sarmsheim municipal council in the 2014 local elections.After the 2019 local elections, he became chairman of the SPD parliamentary group there.[3] He was nominated as an SPD candidate for the Mainz parliamentary constituency in April 2021.[7] In the 2021 Bundestag election, Baldy won the direct mandate in the Mainz Bundestag constituency.[8][9] With 24.9 per cent, he received the most first votes ahead of Ursula Groden-Kranich (CDU), who thus lost the constituency after two terms in office.[10][11][8][9] Baldy cites the challenges of climate change as the most important issue for the election period and calls for a climate-friendly transport transition that 'does not leave people on low incomes behind'.[12] He favours the federal government taking over old municipal debts as, according to Baldy, these 'jeopardise the future viability and performance of the municipalities.'[13] In March 2022, he expressed his support for a general COVID-19 vaccination obligation, as a way out of the COVID-19 pandemic is only possible through nationwide vaccination. Baldy considers this obligation 'appropriate' in constitutional law.[2] Baldy is a deputy member of the Committee on the Environment, Nature Conservation, Nuclear Safety and Consumer Protection and secretary.[5] He is responsible for cyber security, political and religious extremism and preventing extremism in the parliamentary group's Home Affairs Working Group.[14] In the area of family policy, he is particularly concerned with child and youth protection as well as protection against sexualised violence against children.[15]

Together with his colleagues Carmen Wegge and Anna Kassautzki, Baldy drafted a position paper on better-protecting children from sexualised violence for the SPD parliamentary group in the German Bundestag in June 2023.[16][17] The paper calls for a right to individual processing, stronger prevention of cyber grooming, and better awareness of the issue in schools .[18] Baldy also favours the storage of IP addresses for better prosecution.[19] On May 10, 2023, Daniel Baldy attracted negative attention in the 102nd session of the German Bundestag by shouting back after the speech of the non-attached member Farle: “Dude, ey, don't get on my nerves with your bullshit! Really! Go home!”[20] [21] He received a call to order for this.
