The President of the Chamber of Deputies, Arthur Lirafrom the PP of Alagoashas not scheduled the deliberative session scheduled for this Wednesday (9). He also hasn’t yet decided whether to vote for the projects until the end of the second round of municipal elections, which will take place in two weeks. During the first round, which ended last Sunday, the House and Senate promoted days of “concentrated effort” so that parliamentarians could dedicate themselves to the electoral campaign. The federal government is interested in proceeding with the vote on important proposals, such as the renegotiation of state debt and the second phase of tax reform. On Tuesday, immediately after the first round, MPs met in a session that dealt only with projects that achieved consensus. Lira was not present and the session was led by the second vice president, Sostenes Cavalcante, of the Rio de Janeiro PL.

One of the factors that may have influenced the absence of sessions is the government’s decision to remove the urgency of the first regulatory phase of the tax reform. This change was a request of the senators, while Lira preferred that the trial proceed quickly. The rapporteur for reform in the Senate, Eduardo Braga, of the Amazonas MDB, will present the work plan on October 16. Until October 26, 52 cities will be in full campaign for the second round of municipal elections. The head of government in the Chamber, José Guimarães, of the PT do Ceará, reported having had a conversation with Lira, but the definition of next week’s sessions has not yet been made known.
