Favorite in the succession to the Federal Senate, he said that, if elected, the PSD should replace him in command of the CCJ (Constitution and Justice Commission).
The party of the current president, Rodrigo Pacheco (MG), currently has the largest bench in the Legislative House and supports Alcolumbre’s candidacy in the February 2025 legislative election.
In recent weeks, . It is in the federal collegiate that bills are processed before being discussed in plenary.
The right-wing party has argued that it should enroll four senators by next year, which could make it the largest group in the Legislative House.
Thus, he has claimed command of the CCJ with the support of Alcolumbre, with the name of senator Marcos Rogério (PL-RO). However, the senator has already offered the position to the PSD.
Alcolumbre thus intends to avoid headaches with the Palácio do Planalto, which also supports him in the legislative succession.
The idea is that the federal collegiate is led by a name with a moderate profile, without direct links to the left or the right.
Behind the scenes, Alcolumbre’s allies assess that the PL could assume a vice-presidential position in the next administration. The name cited as favorite is that of senator Eduardo Gomes (PL-TO).
Alcolumbre currently has support from both the right and the left for Pacheco’s succession. In addition to him, the women’s bench must launch a candidacy.
The PL, which launched its own candidacy in the last dispute, was left without prominent positions in the current administration. And, therefore, he must now support the favorite.
