BERN - Swiss voters will decide five federal questions next Sunday: the Cash is freedom initiative and its counter-proposal, the SRG levy cut branded 200 francs is enough, the Climate Fund initiative, and the Federal Act on Individual Taxation. Turnout in recent comparable Sundays has sat in the mid-fifties.

The Federal Council recommends no on the three initiatives, yes on the cash counter-proposal, and yes on individual taxation. Party maps are messier on the licence fee than on the climate fund.

Politics does not pause for the ballot

The spring session opens on Monday 2 March, in the middle of this campaign. Deputies will sit, campaign in the evenings, and sit again. The session preview is here.
