Senator Davi Alcolumbre, President of the Brazilian Senate, intends to propose a review of the agreement between Congress and the Supreme Federal Court (STF) regarding constitutional amendments. The move seeks to improve transparency and accountability in the amendment process.
Alcolumbre's proposal stems from concerns about the lack of public debate and scrutiny surrounding the approval of constitutional amendments. He believes that a more transparent and participatory process would strengthen the legitimacy of amendments and enhance public trust in the institutions involved.
The agreement between Congress and the STF was established in 2015 and aimed to streamline the amendment process. However, critics argue that it has led to a decrease in transparency and public engagement. Alcolumbre's proposal aims to address these concerns by introducing measures that promote greater openness and accountability in the amendment process.
