Deputy Beto Richa (PSDB-PR) is the name supported by the acronyms; toucans had 7 of the last 8 presidents of the Defense Commission
The PT and the PSDB allied to support the deputy’s nomination (PSDB-PR) to chair Credn (Foreign Relations and National Defense Commission), according to the Poder360. The name should be discussed by party leaders next week.
The union between toucans and petistas is a way of trying to block the indication of the PL of (PL-SP) to chair the collegiate. Eduardo’s name is seen as “extreme” by the governors.
The Defense Commission is historical control of the acronym. Of the last 8 presidents, 7 were toucans. Currently, she is chaired by the deputy (PSDB-MG).
Eduardo Bolsonaro is the only one of the last 8 presidents of the commission that was not a toucan. He was at the head of the commission in 2019 and 2020.
In addition to CREDN, the PT and PL compete for the presidency of the Education Commission, currently chaired by (PL-MG). Petistas still analyze names of the acronym to present to other leaders.
The PL should remain in control of the Public Security and Combating Organized Crime Commission, today under the deputy’s command (PL-DF). The party must preside over 6 committees.
The acronym of the former president (PL) has priority to choose the committees he wants to preside over because he has the largest bench in the House, with 92 deputies.
PP with defined committees
