Welfare state & family
Raise the retirement age to 67
Do you support an increase in the retirement age (e.g., to 67)?
| No | Rather no | Rather yes | Yes |
|---|---|---|---|
Health insurance premiums
Should the federal government allocate more funding for health insurance premium subsidies?
| No | Rather no | Rather yes | Yes |

Pensions for married couples
For married couples, the pension is currently limited to 150% of the maximum individual AHV pension (capping). Should this limit be eliminated?
| No | Rather no | Rather yes | Yes |
|---|---|---|---|
Comment
It cannot be that married couples are disadvantaged for their decision to live in a marriage compared to cohabiting couples or couples in a registered partnership.
Es kann nicht sein, dass Ehepaare für Ihren Entscheid in einer Ehe zu leben gegenüber Konkubinatspaaren oder Paare in eingetragener Partnerschaft benachteiligt werden.
Reduce LPP pensions
As part of the reform of the BVG (occupational pension plan), pensions are to be reduced (lowering the minimum conversion rate from 6.8% to 6%). Are you in favor of this measure?
| No | Rather no | Rather yes | Yes |
|---|---|---|---|
Comment
The conversion rate was already reduced from 7.2% to 6.8% from 2004. The reduction was to be offset by the lower coordination deduction and the resulting higher retirement assets. The reasons for the reduction were based on objective facts such as increased life expectancy. The current reason of fluctuations on the financial markets is not an objectively measurable reason, which could be planned in the long term. This is not a good basis for such drastic cuts.
Der Umwandlungssatz wurde bereits ab 2004 von 7.2% auf 6.8% gesenkt. Die Einbusse sollte mit dem tieferen Koordinationsabzug und des daraus resultierend höhere Altersguthaben aufgefangen werden. Die Gründe für die Senkung lagen in objektiven Fakten wie der erhöhten Lebenserwartung. Der aktuelle Grund von Schwankungen auf den Finanzmärkten ist kein objektiv messbarer Grund, welcher langfristig planbar wäre. Dies ist keine gute Grundlage für solch einschneidende Kürzungen.
Extend parental leave
Should paid parental leave be increased beyond today's 14 weeks of maternity leave and two weeks of paternity leave? [BePart question]
| No | Rather no | Rather yes | Yes |
|---|---|---|---|
Comment
The first months of a baby's life are a great challenge for families, in addition to personal enrichment. Family formation is taught in social work as one of the biographical crises. Accordingly, it is a sensitive time that requires special attention from both parents. A good start for the whole family facilitates the return to work in the long term and promotes the mental and physical health of the mother.
Die ersten Lebensmonate eines Babys stellt für Familien, nebst der persönlichen Bereicherung, eine grosse Herausforderung dar. Familiengründung wird in der Sozialen Arbeit als eine der biografischen Krisen gelehrt. Entsprechend handelt es sich um eine sensible Zeit, welche besondere Aufmerksamkeit beider Elternteile verlangt. Ein guter Start für die ganze Familie erleichtert langfristig den Wiedereinstieg in die Arbeitstätigkeit und fördert die psychische und physische Gesundheit der Mutter.
Further encourage the construction of social housing
Should the federal government provide more financial support for public housing construction? [BePart question]
| No | Rather no | Rather yes | Yes |
|---|---|---|---|
Comment
Renters are becoming more expensive, so nonprofit housing can provide an improvement for individual groups of people.
Mieter werden immer teurer, sodass gemeinnütziger Wohnungsbau eine Verbesserung für einzelne Personengruppen erzielen kann.
Health
Introduce compulsory vaccination for children
Should compulsory vaccination of children be introduced based on the Swiss vaccination plan?
| No | Rather no | Rather yes | Yes |
|---|---|---|---|
Comment
The Federal Constitution Art. 10 para. 2 guarantees every person the right to personal freedom, in particular to physical and mental integrity and to freedom of movement. Making vaccination compulsory for children would be a significant interference in the personal freedom of parents, who have guardianship and thus responsibility for the children. Therefore, scientific and comprehensible reasons for vaccination are needed so that parents are aware of the opportunities and risks.
Die Bundesverfassung Art. 10 Abs. 2 garantiert jedem Menschen das Recht auf persönliche Freiheit, insbesondere auf körperliche und geistige Unversehrtheit und auf Bewegungsfreiheit. Eine Impfpflicht für Kinder wäre ein wesentlicher Eingriff in die persönliche Freiheit der Eltern, welche die Vormundschaft und damit die Verantwortung für die Kinder tragen. Es braucht daher wissenschaftliche und nachvollziehbare Gründe für die Impfung sodass Eltern sich der Chancen und Risiken bewusst sind.
Introduce a tax on sugary foods
Are you in favor of the introduction of a tax on foods containing sugar (sugar tax)?
| No | Rather no | Rather yes | Yes |
|---|---|---|---|
Comment
Sugar consumption, similar to drug use, activates our reward center in the brain. It makes us want and need more of it. It is mainly the large corporations that profit from this. Too much sugar consumption leads to many common diseases (e.g. obesity). These, in turn, are a burden on the healthcare system. The tax introduced in the United Kingdom in 2018 shows that it is also possible to enjoy less sugar.
Zuckerkonsum aktiviert, ähnliche wie bei Drogenkonsum, unser Belohnungszentrum im Gehirn. Es führt dazu, dass wir mehr davon wollen und brauchen. Davon profitieren vor allem die Grosskonzerne. Zu viel Zuckerkonsum führt zu vielen Volkskrankheiten (z.B. Adipositas). Diese wiederum belasten das Gesundheitssystem. Auch mit weniger Zucker kann Genuss erzeugt werden, dies zeigt die Steuer, die in Grossbritannien im 2018 eingeführt wurde.
Contribution to healthcare costs
Should insured persons contribute more to health care costs (e.g., increase the minimum deductible)?
| No | Rather no | Rather yes | Yes |
|---|---|---|---|
Limit the powers of the Federal Council in the event of a pandemic
Should the Federal Council's ability to restrict private and economic life in the event of a pandemic be more limited?
| No | Rather no | Rather yes | Yes |

Federal competence for national hospital planning
Should the federal government be given the authority to determine the hospital offering (national hospital planning with regard to locations and range of services)?
| No | Rather no | Rather yes | Yes |
|---|---|---|---|
Education
Inclusive schooling
According to the Swiss integrated schooling concept, children with learning difficulties or disabilities should be taught in regular classes. Do you approve of this concept?
| No | Rather no | Rather yes | Yes |
|---|---|---|---|
Comment
I very much support the idea of integration in principle, but practice shows that this is hardly possible due to a lack of human and professional resources. It leads to overload of the teachers and the affected students.
Der Integrationsgedanke stütze ich im Grundsatz sehr, jedoch zeigt die Praxis, dass aufgrund fehlender personeller und fachlicher Ressourcen dies kaum möglich ist. Es führt zu Überlastungen der Lehrpersonen und der betroffenen Schüler und Schülerinnen.
Tighten the requirements for obtaining a high school diploma
Should the federal government raise the requirements for the gymnasiale matura?
| No | Rather no | Rather yes | Yes |
|---|---|---|---|
Equal opportunities in education
Should the state be more committed to equal educational opportunities (e.g., through subsidized remedial courses for students from low-income families)?
| No | Rather no | Rather yes | Yes |
|---|---|---|---|
Comment
The long-term study (cohort study) from Great Britain has shown that children from low-income families have fewer opportunities for good grades, education and well-paid jobs. At the age of 3, they are already one year behind children from wealthier families in their development. These unequal starting conditions can be minimized, at least to some extent, with remedial education.
Die Langzeitstudie (Kohortenstudie) aus Grossbritanien hat aufgezeigt, dass Kinder, welche aus Familien mit geringem Einkommen stammen, weniger Chancen auf gute Noten, Ausbildungen und gut bezahlte Jobs haben. Sie hinken bereits mit 3 Jahren in ihrer Entwicklung Kindern aus reicheren Familien ein Jahr hinterher. Diese ungleichen Startbedingungen können mit Förderunterricht zumindest zu gewissen Teilen minimiert werden.
Immigration & integration
Make naturalization requirements more flexible
Should the conditions for naturalization be relaxed (e.g., shorter residence period)?
| No | Rather no | Rather yes | Yes |
|---|---|---|---|
Increase the quota of third-country nationals for skilled workers
Should more qualified workers from non-EU/EFTA countries be allowed to work in Switzerland (increase third-country quota)?
| No | Rather no | Rather yes | Yes |
|---|---|---|---|
Comment
From my point of view, Switzerland should finally start with family-friendly policies so that having children in Switzerland becomes attractive again. This would also stabilize the financing of pensions again in the long term. In order to maintain a stable population, a country needs a birth rate of 2.1; Switzerland has one of 1.38.
Aus meiner Sicht sollte die Schweiz endlich mit familienfreundlicher Politik beginnen, sodass es auch in der Schweiz wieder attraktiv wird Kinder zu haben. Dadurch würde sich auch langfristig die Finanzierung der Renten wieder stabilisieren. Um eine stabile Bevölkerung zu halten, braucht ein Land eine Geburtenrate von 2,1, die Schweiz hat eine von 1,38.
Asylum procedures outside Europe
Do you support efforts to house asylum seekers in centers outside Europe during the asylum procedure?
| No | Rather no | Rather yes | Yes |
|---|---|---|---|
Voting rights for foreigners
Should foreign nationals who have lived in Switzerland for at least ten years be granted the right to vote and stand for election at the municipal level?
| No | Rather no | Rather yes | Yes |
|---|---|---|---|
Comment
At the very least, it should be examined, since in most cases these are people who are unlikely to return to their home country. Accordingly, the right to vote and to be elected contributes to a better integration in the long run. Cantonally, this is possible in the canton of Jura and Neuchâtel. Lessons should be learned from their experiences. More would have to be invested in language skills and political understanding, so that it would also be used sensibly.
Zu mindest sollte es geprüft werden, da es sich in den meisten Fällen um Personen handelt, welche voraussichtlich nicht mehr in ihr Heimatland zurückkehren werden. Entsprechend trägt das Stimm- und Wahlrecht langfristig zu einer bessern Integration bei. Kantonal ist dies im Kanton Jura und Neuenburg möglich. Von ihren Erfahrungen müsste gelernt werden. Es müsste mehr in die sprachlichen Fähigkeiten und das politische Verständnis investiert werden, damit es auch sinnvoll genutzt würde.

Equality between same-sex and heterosexual couples
Do you think it's right for same-sex couples to have the same rights as heterosexual couples in all areas?
| No | Rather no | Rather yes | Yes |
|---|---|---|---|
Comment
It is not possible to be equal in all areas because of the different biological requirements.
Es ist aufgrund der unterschiedlichen biologischen Voraussetzungen nicht möglich in allen Bereichen gleichgestellt zu sein.
Finances & taxes
Reduce taxes at the federal level
Do you support tax cuts at the federal level over the next four years?
| No | Rather no | Rather yes | Yes |
|---|---|---|---|
Comment
The cost of living, health insurance premiums, and rents have risen, while wages in many areas have not increased or have barely risen at all. Lowering taxes would be a way to relieve the middle class in particular.
Die Lebenshaltungskosten, die Krankenkassenprämien, die Mieten sind gestiegen wobei die Löhne in vielen Bereichen nicht oder kaum gestiegen sind. Die Steuern zu senken wäre eine Möglichkeit vor allem den Mittelstand zu entlasten.
Tax married couples individually
Should married couples be taxed separately (individual taxation)? [BePart question]
| No | Rather no | Rather yes | Yes |
|---|---|---|---|
Comment
A married couple by definition is considered a unit. This is also how our tax system was built. This can and should be reformed, but not with individual taxation, which does not correspond to the basic idea of marriage and ultimately disadvantages those who have opted for the classic family model and do not have an equal distribution of income. This is especially typical in the years with small children.
Ein Ehepaar per Definition wird als Einheit betrachtet. So wurde auch unser Steuersystem aufgebaut. Dieses kann und soll reformiert werden, jedoch nicht mit der Individualbesteuerung, welche nicht dem Grundgedanken der Ehe entspricht und schlussendlich die Personen benachteiligt, welche sich für das klassische Familienmodell entschieden haben und keine gleichmässige Einkommensaufteilung haben. Dies ist insbesondere in den Jahren mit Kleinkindern typisch.

Make the rules for renewable energy less strict
Do you think it's fair that environmental and landscape protection rules are being relaxed to allow for the development of renewable energy?
| No | Rather no | Rather yes | Yes |

Comment
This probably cannot be circumvented. Where absolutely necessary, a relaxation must be examined.
Dies kann vermutlich nicht umgangen werden. Wo zwingend nötig muss eine Lockerung geprüft werden.
Authorize the construction of new nuclear power plants
Should the construction of new nuclear power plants in Switzerland be allowed again?

Ensure a comprehensive range of public services
Should the state guarantee a comprehensive public service offering also in rural regions?
| No | Rather no | Rather yes | Yes |
|---|---|---|---|
Comment
Ultimately, it is the municipalities that must implement it and not the state. The utilization of financial, human and administrative resources is already high and not sustainable for all municipalities. A comprehensive public service is hardly sustainable with the increased demands on the municipalities.
Schlussendlich müssen es die Gemeinden umsetzen und nicht der Staat. Die Auslastung von finanziellen, personellen und administrativen Ressourcen ist bereits jetzt hoch und nicht für alle Gemeinden tragbar. Ein umfassender Service-Public ist mit den gestiegenen Anforderungen an die Gemeinden kaum mehr tragbar.
Introduce progressive electricity tariffs
Would you be in favor of the introduction of increasing electricity tariffs when consumption is higher (progressive electricity tariffs)?
| No | Rather no | Rather yes | Yes |
|---|---|---|---|
Comment
In principle, the idea is understandable, but it is hardly compatible with the intended shift to more electricity-powered vehicles.
Grundsätzlich ist die Idee nachvollziehbar, ist jedoch kaum vereinbar mit dem angestrebten Umstieg auf mehr strombetriebene Fahrzeuge.
Nature conservation
Making provisions for the protection of large predators more flexible
Are you in favor of further relaxing the protection regulations for large predators (lynx, wolf, bear)?
| No | Rather no | Rather yes | Yes |
|---|---|---|---|
Comment
In the long term, the protection regulations, at least with regard to the wolf, will probably have to be relaxed again, should the wolf spread too much or lose its fear of humans.
Langfristig müssen die Schutzbestimmungen, zumindest in Bezug auf den Wolf, wohl wieder gelockert werden, sollte dieser sich zu sehr ausbreiten oder die Angst vor dem Menschen verlieren.
Direct payments for farms
Should direct payments only be granted to farmers with proof of ecological performance?
| No | Rather no | Rather yes | Yes |
|---|---|---|---|
Comment
In the long term, rather yes. But they would also have to be supported in the changeover.
Langfristig eher Ja. Sie müssten aber auch bei der Umstellung unterstützt werden.

Digitizing public services
Should the federal government be given additional powers in the area of digitization of government services in order to be able to impose binding directives and standards on the cantons?
| No | Rather no | Rather yes | Yes |
|---|---|---|---|
Comment
It is also in the interest of the cantons to drive digitization forward. I therefore do not consider the expansion of the federal government's competencies to be necessary.
Es liegt auch im Interesse der Kantone die Digitalisierung voranzutreiben. Daher erachte ich die Kompetenzerweiterung des Bundes nicht als notwendig.

Lowering the voting age to 16
Are you in favour of lowering the voting age to 16?
| No | Rather no | Rather yes | Yes |
|---|---|---|---|
Comment
The age of majority and thus maturity is reached at the age of 18. Until then, a more lenient penal code applies. Men and women are also considered to have reached the age of majority when they reach the age of 18. Furthermore, spirits, aperitifs and alcopops are only sold or served to persons over the age of 18. sold or served. Also the euthanasia for children and young people is not possible with us (in contrast to the Netherlands and Belgium). Voting should be done by those who can and must also bear full responsibility.
Die Volljährigkeit und damit Mündigkeit wird mit 18 Jahren erreicht. Bis dahin gilt ein milderes Strafgesetz. Auch ehemündig ist Mann und Frau erst mit dem erreichen des 18. Lebensjahres. Weiter werden Spirituosen, Aperitife und Alcopops nur an über 18-Jährige verkauft oder ausgeschenkt. Auch die Sterbehilfe für Kinder und Jugendliche ist bei uns (im Gegensatz zu den Niederlanden und Belgien) nicht möglich. Abstimmen soll, wer auch die volle Verantwortung tragen kann und muss.

This may be the case in a functioning constitutional state. But the definition of "not being guilty of anything" can change depending on the spirit of the times and the political system.

Free market economy
What is your position the following statement: "In the long term, everyone benefits from a free market economy in the long term."
| 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Comment
The idea of a free market economy presupposes the full personal responsibility and economic freedom of decision and action of the individual. Ethical economic activity, however, requires certain framework conditions and restrictions, since otherwise it can be assumed that individuals will accept damage to people, animals and the environment in order to make a profit. Self-responsibility also requires the examination of values on the basis of which decisions are made.
Die Idee der freien Marktwirtschaft setzt die volle Selbstverantwortung und wirtschaftliche Entscheidungs- und Handlungsfreiheit der Einzelnen voraus. Ethisches wirtschaften bedingt jedoch gewisse Rahmenbedingungen und Einschränkungen, da ansonsten davon ausgegangen werden kann, dass einzelne um Profit zu erzielen Schäden an Mensch, Tier und Umwelt in Kauf nehmen. Auch Selbstverantwortung bedingt die Auseinandersetzung mit Werten auf deren Grundlage Entscheidungen getroffen werden.

For a child, it is best if both parents are available and take over childcare together. At least in the first months or the first year, I consider the predominant presence of the mother to be very central.

The risks have hardly been studied scientifically yet. Accordingly, long-term studies are needed, e.g., on the influence of media (both school and leisure) on the development of children and young people. Or the influence on social relationships, etc.

In general, the health care system should be reviewed and optimized so that regular health insurance premiums become affordable again even for a middle-class family. More funds for health insurance premium reductions only solves the problem to a limited extent.
