On November 24, voters will decide on two contentious rental proposals aimed at tightening subletting rules and easing tenant terminations for personal use. SP Vice-President Jacqueline Badran criticized the bills as attempts to facilitate evictions, while proponents argue they address rising abuses in the rental market. Notably absent from the debate was Economics Minister Guy Parmelin, who distanced himself from the proposals, labeling them as unnecessary parliamentary initiatives.
The Zurich Cantonal Council has approved a reduction in the corporate tax rate from 7% to 6%, despite opposition from major cities like Zurich and Winterthur, which fear significant revenue losses. A referendum is expected on May 18, 2025, as the left plans to challenge the decision, citing potential austerity measures and questioning the long-term economic benefits. The canton anticipates a CHF 70 million loss in the first year, while proponents argue that a more favorable tax climate will attract more companies over time.
Marcel Dettling, president of the SVP, has reversed the party's stance on widow's pension reform, now seeking a deal after grassroots backlash. He proposes raising the AHV ceiling for married couples in exchange for adjustments to widows' pensions, emphasizing the need to protect marriage. This shift reflects a broader reconsideration of the SVP's social policies amid changing voter sentiments.
