瑞士在2016年舉行了4次公投，表決13項議題。

2月公投

在2月28日舉行的公投一共表決了四項議題：

1. Popular initiative of 5 November 2012 "瑞士註冊伴侶關係", proposed by the 瑞士基督教民主人民黨. It would have prohibited discrimination in taxes for married couples (who pay more in certain circumstances) compared to other cohabiting couples, but it would also have added the definition of marriage being "the union of a man and a woman". Opposition to the initiative was mainly because it would make opening marriage to same-sex couples no longer possible under the constitution.
2. Popular initiative of 28 December 2012 "For the effective expulsion of foreign criminals", proposed by the 瑞士人民黨 which claimed it would provide full implementation of an initiative approved in a November 2010 referendum. Foreigners who commit a crime would be automatically expelled from the country, regardless of the severity of the crime.
3. 由瑞士青年社會黨在2014年3月24日提出的公民動議「別搞糧食投機」。
4. Modification of 26 September 2014 of the federal law on road transit in the Alpine region (Reconstruction of the 聖哥達公路隧道). It allows building a second road tunnel in order for the current tunnel to be reconstructed. This government plan was challenged to a referendum by opposition groups who fear the four lanes would eventually be used, increasing traffic, and who considered it too costly.

聯邦委員會建議選民否決全部三項公民動議和通過聯邦The government recommended the rejection of all three popular initiatives, but recommended approval of the amendments to the federal law on road transit in the Alpine region. The vote results followed these recommendations, with higher voter turnout than usual.

6月公投

Five propositions have been scheduled for the 5 June 2016 referendum:

1. A popular initiative for a basic income.
2. A popular initiative for fair transport financing. According to this initiative, the revenue from the mineral oil tax will be used exclusively for road construction.
3. A popular initiative for public service. Launched by four news and consumer rights magazines, this initiative seeks to improve public services by mandating that the government not set any profitmaking goals for public services, that any profits not fund the overall budget, and that public service directors do not earn more than the corresponding government minister.
4. A referendum on amendments to the medically assisted reproduction law.
5. A referendum on amendments to the federal asylum law.

Basic income referendum

The discussion about basic income in Switzerland began in the 1980s, initially amongst academics such as sociologists who saw the potential to alleviate poverty better than the current system. But there was no major public debate in the 1980s nor the 1990s. In the early 2000s, however, things were slowly changing due to a spill-over from the German debate. Two basic income organizations were formed, "Initiative Grundeinkommen" and BIEN-Switzerland, and one Attac-group also became advocates. These organizations had some success, including some articles in national newspapers. The petition calling for a referendum on basic income as a constitutional right was started in April 2012. After six months 42,000 people had signed, and by April 2013 there were approximately 70,000 signatures. By October 2013 more than 130,000 citizens had signed, meaning a referendum on the issue had to be held. Publicity included a truck filled with eight million coins emptying the money in front of the 聯邦宮 (伯爾尼) in 伯爾尼. Even though the initiative official text submitted to the vote does not specify any level, the campaigners have proposed 2,500 瑞士法郎s for adults (about 1,650 USD at 購買力平價 in 2014) and 625 francs for children per month.
