Overview

• After a 311–163 vote, the Chamber approved urgent processing for the amnesty proposal, speeding it directly to the floor.
• Relator Paulinho da Força rebranded the text as the “PL da Dosimetria,” saying it would reduce penalties rather than grant a blanket pardon, following talks reported at Michel Temer’s home and phone contacts with Justices Alexandre de Moraes and Gilmar Mendes.
• In Vera Cruz, Governor Tarcísio de Freitas defended amnesty as a path to social ‘pacification’ while stating he does not want impunity and did not mention Jair Bolsonaro by name.
• PL leader Sóstenes Cavalcante detailed a coordinated occupation of Congress in August to force action on the bill and credited Tarcísio’s presence in Brasília with consolidating votes for the urgency approval.
• Internal friction persists as Eduardo Bolsonaro attacks the dosimetry approach and Republicanos seeks electoral concessions from the PL over the risk of losing Tarcísio, with state-level candidacies being recalibrated.
