There is no amount in the vote. What people will vote on is to add the following article to the constitution:

Art. 110a Unconditional basic income

1. The Confederation shall ensure the establishment of an unconditional basic income.

2. The basic income should allow the entire population to lead a dignified life and to participate in public life.

3. The law particularly regulates the financing and the amount of the basic income.

The parliament and the senate recommend to vote against this.

The government would then have to implement this.
