Brazil's PT proposes judiciary ethics code, salary caps amid 'deep crisis'

PT president Edinho Silva calls for a code of ethics for Brazil's judiciary and an end to excessive salaries, citing a 'deep crisis' in the political and judicial system. This marks an escalation in political pressure on the judiciary, potentially signaling a shift in the ruling party's stance toward judicial reform. The proposal is likely to intensify institutional tensions ahead of the 2026 elections.
