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 |
|---|---|---|---|
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 reduction in the conversion rate results in a pension loss for everyone. The envisaged compensation payments compensate for this only minimally. This proposal has nothing to do with an improvement in women's pensions, which was promised after AHV21.
Die Absenkung des Umwandlungssatzes hat einen Rentenverlust für alle zur Folge. Die vorgesehenen Ausgleichszahlungen gleichen diesen nur minimal aus. Mit einer Verbesserung der Frauenrenten, die nach der AHV21 versprochen wurde, hat diese Vorlage nichts zu tun.
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 |

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 |

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
Vaccinations are not only for self-protection, but also for the protection of society. The vaccinations included in the Swiss vaccination plan are only "basic" vaccinations, which are already given to the majority of children today.
Impfungen dienen nicht nur dem Selbstschutz, sondern auch dem Schutz der Gesellschaft. Bei den Impfungen welche im Schweizerischen Impfplan enthalten sind, handelt es sich lediglich um "Basic" Impfungen, welche heute schon die Mehrheit der Kinder verabreicht bekommt.
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 |
|---|---|---|---|
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 |
|---|---|---|---|
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 |
|---|---|---|---|
Comment
Vocational training and the possibility of pursuing an academic career after training should be strengthened. The prestige of the Matura must be put on a par with the completed vocational apprenticeship.
Die Berufslehre und die Möglichkeiten nach einer Ausbildung eine akademische Karriere anstreben zu können, sollten gestärkt werden. Das Ansehen der Matura muss der abgeschlossen Berufslehre gleichgestellt werden.
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 |
|---|---|---|---|
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 |
|---|---|---|---|
Comment
The current naturalization procedure is bureaucratically complex and costly. If people are naturalized more quickly, they can better gain a foothold in the Swiss labor market, have a say in politics and plan a long-term life in Switzerland. In the current system, there are people, including young people, who have lived in Switzerland for decades and have not yet sought naturalization for financial reasons, among others.
Das heutige Einbürgerungsverfahren ist bürokratisch aufwendig und kostenintensiv. Wenn Personen schneller eingebürgert werden, können sie so besser Fuss auf dem schweizerischen Arbeitsmarkt fassen, politisch mitbestimmen und ein langfristiges Leben in der Schweiz planen. Im heutigen System gibt es Menschen darunter Jugendliche welche seit Jahrzehnten in der Schweiz Leben und u.a. aus finanziellen Gründen die Einbürgerung noch nicht angestrebt haben.
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
We must pursue a liberal asylum policy! Every person who wants to live in Switzerland should have the right to do so. Actively recruiting qualified workers from third countries cannot be the solution. Skilled workers are needed in these countries just as much and by poaching these third countries we are committing a neocolonialist practice. Increasing the quotas could therefore encourage companies to recruit more skilled workers from third countries.
Wir müssen eine liberale Asylpolitik verfolgen! Jeder Mensch, der in der Schweiz leben möchte, soll das Recht dazu haben. Qualifizierte Arbeitskräfte aus Drittstaaten aktiv anzuwerben kann nicht die Lösung sein. Fachkräfte werden in diesen Ländern genauso benötigt und indem wir diese Drittstaaten abwerben begehen wir eine neokolonialistische Praxis. Eine Erhöhung der Kontigente könnte daher Unternehmen animieren weitere Fachkräfte aus Drittstaaten anzuwerben.
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 |
|---|---|---|---|
Comment
Further camps like the one in Moria, where tens of thousands of people are crammed together and exposed to the at the mercy of the weather, must be combated at all costs. The external border procedures will result in tens of thousands of people being detained for weeks and months. Even children who should actually be going to school will be detained in this way. It should go without saying that we cannot treat traumatized refugees in this way, regardless of whether they are children or not.
Weitere Lager wie in Moria, wo zehntausende Menschen zusammengepfercht und den Witterungen ausgeliefert sind, gilt es auf jeden Fall zu bekämpfen. Die Aussengrenzverfahren werden zur Folge haben, dass zehntausende Menschen über Wochen und Monate festgehalten werden. Auch Kinder, die eigentlich zur Schule gehen sollten, kommen so in Haft. Das wir so nicht mit traumatisierten geflüchteten Menschen umgehen dürfen, egal ob Kinder oder nicht, sollte selbstverständlich sein.
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
Foreigners represent more than 1.6 million people living in Switzerland. This is 20% of the population, who pay taxes according to the Swiss Federal Constitution, but are excluded from the right to vote. In a democracy, everyone should have a say.
Ausländer*innen repräsentieren mehr als 1.6 Millionen Menschen, die in der Schweiz leben. Das sind 20% der Population, welche nach der Schweizer Bundesverfassung zwar Steuern bezahlen, aber vom Wahl- und Stimmrecht ausgeschlossen sind. In einer Demokratie sollte jeder Mensch mitbestimmen können.
Society & ethics
Legalize cannabis use
Should cannabis use be legalized? [BePart question]
| No | Rather no | Rather yes | Yes |
|---|---|---|---|
Authorize active euthanasia
Would you be in favour of doctors being allowed to administer direct active euthanasia in Switzerland?
| No | Rather no | Rather yes | Yes |
|---|---|---|---|
Comment
Direct active euthanasia by physicians should be possible without penalty. Through a procedure, the actual will of the patient shall be determined in advance by an independent of the patient should be determined in advance by an independent body. If If it is determined that the will of the person (e.g. through a patient's living will) explicitly requires direct active euthanasia, doctors should be allowed to carry this out without penalty.
Die direkte aktive Sterbehilfe durch Ärzt*innen soll straffrei möglich sein. Durch ein systematisches und sorgfältig geprüftes Verfahren soll der tatsächliche Wille der Patient*innen vorgängig durch ein unabhängiges Gremium ermittelt werden. Wird festgestellt, das der Wille der Person (bspw. durch Patient*innenverfügung) expliziet eine direkte aktive Sterbehilfe hergibt, soll es den Ärzt*innen erlaubt sein, diese straffrei durchzuführen.
Introdurre un terzo sesso ufficiale
Should a third official gender be introduced alongside "female" and "male"?
| No | Rather no | Rather yes | Yes |
|---|---|---|---|
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 |
|---|---|---|---|
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 |

Tax married couples individually
Should married couples be taxed separately (individual taxation)? [BePart question]
| No | Rather no | Rather yes | Yes |
|---|---|---|---|
Introduce a national inheritance tax
Would you support the introduction of a national inheritance tax on all inheritances over one million Swiss francs? [BePart question]
| No | Rather no | Rather yes | Yes |
|---|---|---|---|
Comment
Huge mountains of wealth are inherited tax-free every year through inheritances. This is in contrast to the very high taxation of earned income, i.e. money for which people have worked. The beneficiaries of inheritances, on the other hand, have done nothing to receive this money. Such a tax policy leads to a privileging of wealthy people. The current purely cantonal regulation leads to tax havens. A standard at the federal level is therefore needed.
Durch Erbschaften werden jedes Jahr riesige Vermögensberge steuerfrei vererbt. Dies während Erwerbseinkommen im Vergleich sehr hoch besteuert wird, also Geld wofür Menschen gearbeitet haben. Die Begünstigten von Erbschaften haben hingegen nichts dafür getan, dass sie diese Gelder erhalten. Eine solche Steuerpolitik führt zu einer Privilegierung von vermögenden Menschen. Die momentane rein kantonale Regelung führt zu Steueroasen. Es braucht daher eine Norm auf Bundesebene.
Strengthen financial equalization between the cantons
Should the differences between cantons with high and low financial capacity be further reduced through fiscal equalization?
| No | Rather no | Rather yes | Yes |
|---|---|---|---|

Introduce a national minimum wage of CHF 4,000
Are you in favor of introducing a minimum wage of CHF 4,000 for all full-time employees?
| No | Rather no | Rather yes | Yes |

Regulate the financial sector more strictly
Do you support stricter regulations for the financial sector (e.g., stricter capital requirements for banks, ban on bonuses)?
| No | Rather no | Rather yes | Yes |
|---|---|---|---|
Liberalizzare completamente il mercato dell'elettricità
Should private households be free to choose their electricity supplier (complete liberalization of the electricity market)?
| No | Rather no | Rather yes | Yes |

Make housing construction regulations more flexible
Should housing construction regulations be relaxed (e.g., noise protection, occupancy rates)?

Wage equality between women and men
Are you in favor of stricter controls on equal pay for women and men?
| No | Rather no | Rather yes | Yes |

Restructure heavily trafficked sections of the highway
Should busy sections of highways be widened?
| No | Rather no | Rather yes | Yes |
|---|---|---|---|
Ban new registrations of combustion engine vehicles from 2035
Should Switzerland ban the registration of new passenger cars with internal combustion engines starting in 2035?
| No | Rather no | Rather yes | Yes |
|---|---|---|---|
Achieve climate targets through incentives
To achieve climate targets, should incentives and target agreements be relied on exclusively, rather than bans and restrictions?
| No | Rather no | Rather yes | Yes |
|---|---|---|---|
Comment
For an economy within planetary boundaries, there needs to be a profound change. Many of these measures will be barely noticeable: binding reduction targets for the financial sector, general efficiency measures, promotion of bio-based building materials, food waste reduction projects. Other measures will tangibly improve our lives: Sustainable housing policies, reduction of working hours, circular economy and a right to repair.
Für eine Wirtschaft innerhalb der planetaren Grenzen braucht es einen tiefgreifenden Wandel. Viele dieser Massnahmen werden kaum spürbar sein: bindende Reduktionsziele des Finanzsektors, allgemeine Effizienzmassnahmen, Förderung von biologisch basierten Baumaterialien, Projekte zur Reduktion von Lebensmittelabfällen. Andere Massnahmen werden unser Leben spürbar verbessern: Nachhaltige Siedlungspolitik, Arbeitszeitverkürzung, Kreislaufwirtschaft und ein Recht auf Reperatur.

Should the construction of new nuclear power plants in Switzerland be allowed again?
| No | Rather no | Rather yes | Yes |

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
With the phase-out of fossil fuels, transport will be reshaped. Individual transport will decrease significantly and therefore we need a better developed public transport system. Less traffic and more mobility!
Mit dem Ausstieg aus den fossilen Energieträgern, wird sich der Verkehr neu gestalten. Der Individualverkehr wird deutlich zurückgehen und daher brauchen wir einen besser ausgebauten ÖV. Weniger Verkehr und mehr Mobilität!

More sustainable use of electronic devices
Are you in favour of government measures to make the use of electronic devices more sustainable (e.g., right to repair, extension of warranty period, minimum guaranteed period for software updates)? [BePart question]
| No | Rather no | Rather yes | Yes |
|---|---|---|---|
Comment
For our economy to function within planetary boundaries, we need to move away from the throwaway mentality. This includes framework conditions that make repairs possible and more attractive than buying new.
Damit unsere Wirtschaft innerhalb der planetaren Grenzen funktioniert, müssen wir weg von der Wegwerfmentalität kommen. Dazu gehören Rahmenbedingungen, die Reparaturen ermöglichen und attraktiver machen als ein Neukauf.
Democracy, Media & Digitization
Mobile phone network (5G)
Should the Swiss mobile network be equipped throughout the country with the latest technology (currently 5G standard)?
| No | Rather no | Rather yes | Yes |

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?

Strengthening regulation of big internet platforms
Are you in favor of stronger regulation of the major Internet platforms (i.e., transparency rules on algorithms, increased liability for content, combating disinformation)?
| No | Rather no | Rather yes | Yes |

Lowering TV and radio license fees
A popular initiative aims to reduce television and radio fees (CHF 200 per household, exemption for businesses). Do you support this initiative?
| No | Rather no | Rather yes | Yes |
|---|---|---|---|
Comment
In a system in which the electorate can decide four times a year on new constitutional provisions and referendums, political (high-quality) information is all the more important. Young people in particular would be affected by the cutback. The reduction of Billag fees will make the prices for marginal services on radio and television more expensive. Trainees will not be able to afford a more expensive radio subscription to RaBe or sports broadcasts on pay TV.
In einem System, in welchem die Stimmbevölkerung vier Mal pro Jahr über neue Verfassungsbestimmungen und Referenden bestimmen kann, ist politische (hochwertige) Information umso wichtiger. Besonders junge Menschen wären von dem Kahlschlag betroffen. Die Reduktion der Billag-Gebühren wird die Preise für Randangebote in Radio und Fernsehen verteuern. Auszubildende können sich kein teureres Radio-Abo bei RaBe oder Sportsendungen auf Pay-TV leisten.
Lowering the voting age to 16
Are you in favour of lowering the voting age to 16?
| No | Rather no | Rather yes | Yes |

Comment
Young people are political and want to have a say in their future. The earlier young people can participate in the political process, the earlier politicization takes place. Together with strong school-based education about our political system and current political issues, we achieve high voter and election turnout among young people.
Die Jugend ist politisch und will über ihre Zukunft mitbestimmen. Je früher junge Menschen am politischen Prozess teilhaben können, desto früher findet eine Politisierung statt. Zusammen mit einer starken schulischen Bildung über unser politisches System und die aktuellen politischen Fragen erreichen wir eine hohe Stimm- und Wahlbeteiligung bei jungen Menschen.

Security & military
Increasing the size of the army to at least 120,000 soldiers
Are you in favor of expanding the army's target number of soldiers to at least 120,000?
| No | Rather no | Rather yes | Yes |
|---|---|---|---|
Comment
The army in its current form has had its day. Instead, Switzerland should continue to be involved in peace policy as a neutral country and expand this involvement. Instead of an outdated, overpriced and inefficient army, Switzerland needs a civilian peace, environmental or social service, which all persons living in Switzerland are obliged to perform.
Die Armee in ihrer heutigen Form hat ausgedient. Stattdessen soll die Schweiz weiterhin als neutrales Land in der Friedenspolitik engagiert sein und dieses Engagement ausbauen. Anstelle einer veralteten, überteuerten und ineffizienten Armee braucht die Schweiz einen zivilen Friedens-, Umwelt- oder Sozialdienst, welchen alle in der Schweiz lebenden Personen obligatorisch zu leisten haben.

Re-export of Swiss weapons
Should the Federal Council be allowed to authorize other states to re-export Swiss weapons in cases of a war of aggression in violation of international law (e.g., the attack on Ukraine)? [BePart question]
| No | Rather no | Rather yes | Yes |
|---|---|---|---|
Comment
The political achievements of the last years with the War Material Act would be endangered. Switzerland has much more effective levers to use internationally for peace and people in need (e.g. in the case of Ukraine with sanctions, consistent freezing of funds and a stop of Russian commodity trade via Switzerland).
Die politischen Errungenschaften der letzten Jahre mit dem Kriegsmaterialgesetz würden dadurch gefährdet. Die Schweiz hat deutlich wirkungsvollere Hebel sich international für Frieden und Menschen in der Not einzusetzen (z.B. im Fall der Ukraine mit Sanktionen, konsequenter Einfrierung von Geldern und einem Stopp von russischem Rohstoffhandel über die Schweiz).

| No | Rather no | Rather yes | Yes |

Comment
Swiss companies must also comply with human rights and environmental standards abroad in accordance with international law. If they violate them, they should be able to be condemned before Swiss courts and pay damages.
Schweizer Unternehmen müssen auch im Ausland Menschenrechte und Umweltstandards gemäss internationalem Recht einhalten. Wenn sie dagegen verstossen, sollen sie dafür vor Schweizer Gerichten verurteilt werden können und Schadenersatz zahlen.

There is an urgent need for a reorientation of police attitudes and rights. More preventive social work, inclusion and decriminalization, and a fight against the abuse of power, racial profiling, groundless and discriminatory repression.

The free market economy is already causing great suffering, the gap between rich and poor people in Switzerland is huge. In the long run, the free market economy destroys our planet. Instead of infinite growth and ruthless profit maximization, an intact environment and the well-being of all people should become the first priority of the economy.
Die freie Marktwirtschaft verursacht bereits jetzt grosses Leid, die Schere zwischen armen und reichen Menschen in der Schweiz ist riesig.

Due to our economic system, the gap between rich and poor is getting bigger and bigger. Capitalism promises us "everyone can become rich and successful, if only the person wants it". As long as the starting conditions for all people are not the same, this promise is worthless.

A large part of the subsidies that go to agriculture today do not end up with the farms themselves, but with large corporations such as Syngenta. In order for farms to receive better financial support, it is not more money that is needed for the "agriculture" sector, but a better distribution of the money.
Ein grossteil der Subventionen welche heute in die Landwirtschaft gehen, landen nicht bei den Bauernhöfen selbst, sondern bei Grosskonzernen wie beispielsweise Syngenta.

Swiss projects that do not pursue the goal of making the global South independent of the former colonial states must be stopped. These projects only perpetuate the neocolonialist practices and strengthen the dependency of the respective countries.

Comment
Increasing the retirement age and making it more flexible does not affect everyone equally. Rich people can take early retirement, while the vast majority have to slave away until old age. Furthermore, society should benefit from technical progress in the economy and the retirement age should therefore be lowered.
Eine Erhöhung und Flexibilisierung des Rentenalters betrifft nicht alle gleich. Reiche Menschen können in die Frühpension, während die Allermeisten bis ins hohe Alter schuften müssen. Ausserdem sollte die Gesellschaft vom technischen Fortschritt in der Wirtschaft profitieren und das Rentenalter daher gesenkt werden.
