A December 2017 Tamedia poll found that 72% of Swiss people supported identical-intercourse marriage, with 25% opposed. A 2016 poll commissioned by gay-rights organisation Pink Cross found that 69% of the Swiss population supported similar-sex marriage, with 25% opposed and 6% undecided. Among them is Claude Janiak, State Councillor and former National Council President, who is involved in AIDS work and Pink Cross. The Swiss Lesbian Organisation (Lesbenorganisation Schweiz, Organisation suisse des lesbiennes, Organizzazione svizzera delle lesbiche, Organisaziun svizra da lesbas) was founded in 1989 to advocate for lesbian rights, and Pink Cross was based in 1993 to campaign for the rights of gay and bisexual men. The groups advocate for visibility, as well as legal rights for similar-sex couples and societal acceptance. In November 2020, another poll performed by the gfs group found that 82% of respondents "strongly" or "considerably" supported similar-intercourse marriage, 17% have been opposed and 1% have been undecided, 72% supported adoption and 70% supported assisted reproductive technology for lesbian couples.
