The Alternative for Germany (AfD) party in Saxony-Anhalt plans to abolish church asylum and hold churches financially accountable if they form the state government. The Evangelical Church in Central Germany is considering relocating church asylum to other federal states due to this threat. The AfD has also criticized the churches for their stance on LGBT acceptance, refugee care, and climate change, labeling them 'too left-wing'. The churches have expressed concern about the potential impact on their institutions and have spoken out against the AfD.
