BRAZIL POLITICS - Report 02 May 2023 by Murillo de Aragão and Cristiano Noronha

Four Parliamentary Committees of Inquiry (CPIs) should be installed this week. The one on the January 8 attacks is a joint committee and will be composed of both deputies and senators. Three other committees will be installed in the House: on the Landless Workers' Movement (MST), the Americanas stores, and sports betting. Today the House may vote on the so-called "Fake News" Bill (PL nº 2.630/20), which creates the Brazilian Law on Freedom, Responsibility, and Transparency on the Internet. The vote may still be postponed. On Friday, May 5, the Supreme Federal Court (STF) will begin virtual analysis of an injunction granted by Justice André Mendonça that suspended the effects of the decision of the Superior Court of Justice (STJ) that allows for the taxation of ICMS tax incentives.
