Overview

• Deputy Gervásio Maia presented his report to the CMO on September 23 with a rule requiring payments for health and social assistance funds, including emendas Pix, no later than three months before the 2026 election.
• A window for lawmakers to file highlights is open, and CMO chair Efraim Filho set the PLDO vote for September 30.
• Maia says the text streamlines execution by shortening the steps for emendas to be processed and paid.
• The report pressures for a larger Electoral Fund in 2026, signaling an amount not below roughly R$5 billion and classifying party and campaign funds as mandatory, shielded from contingency.
• The draft removes ministry fees of up to 4.5% tied to releasing emendas and authorizes commission and bancada amendments to pay health personnel, a change opposed by the Health Ministry and the TCU.
