STF Sends Bill to Congress for Successive 8% Annual Raises for Judiciary Staff Starting in 2026

The proposal now awaits review in the Chamber of Deputies.

Overview

  • The STF submitted Bill No. 4.750/2025 proposing cumulative 8% increases to be applied in July 2026, July 2027 and July 2028.
  • The measure covers effective positions, commissioned posts and commissioned functions across the federal Judiciary, while ministers are excluded because they already receive the public-service pay ceiling.
  • The court states the plan complies with Article 169, §1º of the Constitution and that funding is earmarked in Annex V of the 2026 budget bill.
  • The justification cites a 24.21% loss in purchasing power through July 2025 and a projected 31.36% by June 2026, along with concerns about retaining talent in law and IT.
  • The bill must pass the Chamber of Deputies and the Federal Senate before potentially receiving presidential sanction.
