Alcolumbre Names Alessandro Vieira Senate Rapporteur for Anti‑Faction Bill

The Senate now awaits a technical report guided by his organized crime inquiry experience.

Overview

  • Senate President Davi Alcolumbre selected Senator Alessandro Vieira to steer the bill’s analysis to avoid ideological contamination and protect the project.
  • The appointment followed the Chamber of Deputies’ approval of Guilherme Derrite’s sixth report by 370 votes to 110 with 3 abstentions, sending the measure to the Senate.
  • Alcolumbre said he declined requests from several senators to take the role, citing overt interest from Flávio Bolsonaro and Sergio Moro.
  • Vieira, an ex–police delegate known for political independence, currently serves as rapporteur of the CPI on Organized Crime.
  • He said his CPI work will help assess and adjust the text, and government congressional leader Randolfe Rodrigues praised the choice as intelligent and assertive.
