Overview
- The Chamber’s Ethics Council on Tuesday opened disciplinary proceedings against Marcos Pollon (PL‑MS), Marcel van Hattem (Novo‑RS) and Zé Trovão (PL‑SC) for their roles in the August occupation that halted sessions.
- Triplicate lists of potential rapporteurs were drawn, and Council president Fábio Schiochet will choose the reporting members from those lists, with the selections expected by Friday.
- Pollon faces two cases recommending 90 days for attacks on the Chamber presidency and 30 days for blocking the chair; Van Hattem and Zé Trovão each face a recommended 30‑day suspension for obstructing the president’s seat.
- Three obstruction cases were grouped to share a single rapporteur, while a separate proceeding will handle the allegation that Pollon insulted Speaker Hugo Motta.
- The Corregedoria also proposed written censures for 11 other deputies, and any suspension approved would temporarily strip affected lawmakers of salary, staff and allowances during the penalty period.
