Paulo newspaper. highlights that "the The Speaker of the House, Rodrigo Maia (DEM-RJ), has agreed with leaders of some political parties that, until Carnival, the House will only deal with legislative projects.

The formation of the group that will analyze the new pension reform is included in this package."
