The Parliament drafts laws which are voted on once a year by all citizens in a direct vote.<

There are usually multiple referendums a year voted on by the citizenry. Parliament in Switzerland acts similarly to the way congress works in the U.S. The major difference is that there is a national referendum and that it only takes 50,000 signatures to bring a referendum to a national vote.
