My issues for the Winterthur-Stadt district

I belong to no party. I decide every question on its merits and on what I hear in the neighbourhood. Every month I will publish how I voted and why.

What matters most to me

  1. A city where you can breathe

    More trees, more shade and safe bike paths make Winterthur a better place to live. That helps children, older people and everyone who suffers in the summer heat.

  2. Care that has time

    As a nurse I know how little time there is at the bedside. Care staff need better working hours and less paperwork so they stay in the job.

More green in the city
