Brazil Senate schedules debate on ending 6x1 work shift, vote likely after elections

Senate President Alcolumbre scheduled plenary discussion of the PEC to end the 6x1 work shift for next week, but without expedited processing, voting is expected after the second round of municipal elections. The Senate will hold a concentrated effort between October 6-8 to vote on legislative matters, with Congress resuming normal work in November. This is a procedural step in an ongoing legislative process, with the outcome uncertain and dependent on political timing.
