PEC of R$ 200 billion should be voted this Tuesday in the Senate

The Transition PEC advances after months of discussions and lack of consensus.

The proposal should be voted on this Tuesday (6), at 9:30 am, at the Senate Constitution and Justice Committee (CCJ). But if, on the one hand, articulation is moving forward, on the other hand, the expected dehydration of the value of the PEC in Congress has not yet come.

The text that will be voted on was still at R$ 200 billion, which displeases the market, even though the deadline has been reduced from four to two years. The definition of the rapporteur — Alexandre Silveira (PSD-MG) — was also not pleasing, since the chosen one is quoted for the Ministry of Infrastructure by indication of Senator Davi Alcolumbre (União Brasil) and the President of the Senate, Rodrigo Pacheco (PSD).

The assessment is that Silveira could make concessions for the proposal to reach the R$ 200 billion of the original text.
