Life and politics

Höchst was born 1970 in the

Homburg (Saar) and became a teacher.[1]

Höchst entered the AfD in 2015 and became after the 2017 German federal election a member of the Bundestag.[1] She is a member of the Committee for Education, Research and Technology Assessment and the Committee on Family, Senior Citizens, Women and Youth. She criticized the concept of a third gender, partially in response to the Federal Constitutional Court's ruling that a third gender option was constitutionally necessary.[2] (See also: Third gender law (Germany)). Her daughter is a member of the youth city council in Speyer. In late 2018, her daughter participated in a poetry competition, in which she read a poem that was widely deemed as racist, in which she criticized political correctness, so-called civil courage and mass immigration. She was disqualified and Speyer's mayor Monika Kabs later accused her of using racist comments to further her mother's political campaigns.[3][4]
