Political career

Kramme first became a member of the Bundestag in the 1998 German federal election.[2] In this capacity, she has served on the Committee on Labour and Social Affairs (1998-2013) and the Committee on Legal Affairs (2002-2005). From 2009 until 2013, she was her parliamentary group's spokesperson on social policy.

In the negotiations to form a Grand Coalition of the Christian Democrats (CDU together with the Bavarian CSU) and the SPD following the 2013 federal elections, Kramme was part of the SPD delegation in the working group on labor policy, led by Ursula von der Leyen and Andrea Nahles. She has since been serving as Parliamentary State Secretary at the Federal Ministry of Labour and Social Affairs, under successive ministers Andrea Nahles (2013-2017) and Hubertus Heil (since 2017).

In the negotiations on a fourth coalition government under Merkel's leadership following the 2017 federal elections, Kramme was part of the working group on social affairs, this time led by Nahles, Karl-Josef Laumann and Barbara Stamm.
