Political career

Bartol has been a member of the German Bundestag since the 2002 federal election, representing the electoral district of Marburg.

In the negotiations to form a Grand Coalition of Chancellor Angela Merkel's Christian Democrats (CDU together with the Bavarian CSU) and the SPD following the 2013 federal elections, Bartol was part of the SPD delegation in the working group on transport, building and infrastructure, led by Peter Ramsauer and Florian Pronold.

Bartol has since been serving as deputy chairman of the SPD parliamentary group under the leadership of successive chairpersons Thomas Oppermann (2013-2017), Andrea Nahles (2017-2019) and Rolf Mützenich (since 2019). In the negotiations to form a fourth coalition government under Merkel following the 2017 federal elections, he again led the working group on transport and infrastructure, this time alongside Thomas Strobl and Alexander Dobrindt.

Bartol is a member of the Parliamentary Friendship Group for Relations with the States of Central America, the Parliamentary Friendship Group for Relations with the States of South America – which is in charge of maintaining inter-parliamentary relations with Argentina, Bolivia, Chile, Ecuador, Guyana, Colombia, Paraguay, Peru, Suriname, Uruguay, Venezuela – and the German-Brazilian Parliamentary Friendship Group.
