For young people
For Monika Müller, the participation and involvement of young people in city decisions is a matter of course, so that democracy is also lived and experienced as a benefit by the next generation.

In order to further promote Rastatt as a strong business location, Monika Müller relies on an attractive city center and regular exchange with the business community. Employers in Rastatt should find good conditions and experience the administration and city policy as partners. A direct line to employers and employee representatives is important to her.
