The Senate intends to vote on the PEC between the first and second rounds of elections, which ends the 6x1 work schedule and reduces the weekly work hours from 44 to 40. The proposal was approved in the Committee on Constitution and Justice (CCJ) and still needs to go through five discussion sessions in the Plenary before being voted on.
An agreement among senators could shorten this deadline, but any deliberation will only occur after October 4, giving senators approximately one month to analyze the proposal.
The article suggests that the PEC will have dire consequences for the economy and classifies it as a "purely electoral" measure, criticizing the timing chosen for its consideration.
