Philipp Amthor appointed State Minister in German Chancellery

Philipp Amthor, a prominent CDU politician, has transitioned into a new role as State Minister for Federal-State Relations within the German Chancellery. This career advancement follows his previous tenure as a Parliamentary State Secretary in the Digital Ministry.

Amthor's monthly income is composed of several sources. As a State Minister, he receives an official salary of approximately 13,844 euros. Additionally, because he maintains his position as a member of the Bundestag, he receives an estimated monthly allowance of 7,000 euros.

Considered a rising talent within the CDU, Amthor also serves as the acting chairman of the party's state association in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern. Despite past controversies regarding his lobbying activities for a New York-based startup, which were investigated by the Bundestag and found to have no legal violations, he has continued to advance within the federal government.
