The deputy (Solidarity-SP), rapporteur of the feather reduction project for scammer acts, said the proposal vote should be postponed. Centrão leaders predicted that the text be taken this week, but political impasses and a reaction from the Supreme Court (STF) to the new sanctions of the US government has threatened this plan.
Once optimistic about voting the project on Wednesday (24), after meetings with the parties, the proposal rapporteur adopted more cautious tone after the sanctions. How it showed the Sheet(-PB), and threatened to cancel an agreement with Congress for the approval of penalties.
Paulinho attributed the possible postponement, however, to the resistance of governing parties, who hesitate to approve the reduction of penalties, and opposition, which insist on broad amnesty.
“There is the PT saying that it does not vote, there is the PL saying that it does not vote. We are talking about 200 votes, so I find it very difficult to get a mood to vote this week,” Paulinho told Sheet.
“We should work to get the majority. You can only vote when we are sure that you will have a majority to approve the dosimetry project, which means to pacify the country,” said the rapporteur.
Ministers of the Court sought Motta and warned the deputy that the measures impair the advancement of these negotiations. After receiving the warning, the parliamentarian sought allies to evaluate the postponement of the vote of this proposal, initially scheduled for the coming days.
The US government, the minister’s wife, and the institute that belongs to the magistrate’s family on the list of. Announced in this views of more Brazilian authorities in reaction to the judgment of the Court.
A STF minister who talked to Motta on Monday stated, reserved, that all the goodwill that could be in court, especially with the central core of the coup plot, “smoked” with the new sanctions. This does not mean, however, that the channels are completely obstructed.
In addition, there would still be a negotiation space on penalties applied to those convicted of participation in the attacks of January 8, 2023, specifically. Despite this initial availability for the dialogue, between ministers would be majority the assessment that the sanctions imposed on the family of Moraes soured the relationship between STF and Congress.
Last week, Centrão members confidentially closed the terms of an agreement involving the voting of a project that reduces penalties by scammer acts, the guarantee that Bolsonaro could serve a sentence on a home basis and the rejection of any form of forgiveness for the crimes judged by the STF, according to people who participate in the negotiations.
One of the pending issues for the agreement would be, precisely, in the choice of Deputy Eduardo Bolsonaro (PL-SP), son of the former president, for the leadership of the minority in. He lives in the US and acts with the Trump administration for the imposition of economic sanctions against Brazil.
Encouraged by pockets, the sanctions were classified as a disloyalty by members of the Court, occurring amidst the sewing of an agreement and the moment Bolsonaro allies intercede for the maintenance of the former president in house arrest.
The application of sanctions, which affected members of the government, also ended up burying the possibility of the Lula government not imposing restrictions on the processing of this project. According to reports, Motta consulted Minister Gleisi Hoffmann (Secretariat of Institutional Relations) about the hypothesis of presenting a proposal to reduce penalty.
In response, Gleisi stated that this was a subject for Congress and STF, adding that the Planalto would not get involved. After the rapporteur’s measures and meeting with former President Michel Temer, government emissaries warned that they will not support the reduction of penalties.
In addition, a project sent by the urgent executive that deals with environmental licensing will lock the House agenda from this Tuesday (23). This means that other projects cannot be voted until it is discussed in the plenary – which makes it difficult to vote on feather reduction.
According to reports, Motta sought members of the government to ask to remove the urgency of the bill, but the Planalto Palace indicated that it only agrees if it is to vote other proposals that Lula considers most relevant, such as the increase in income tax exemption range, and postponing amnesty. With the negative, deputies of the ruralist bench argues to vote the text already approved by Congress and defeat the version sent by the government as an alternative.
