Brazil Senate to Promulgate PEC Ending 6x1 Shift Ahead of Runoff

Senate President Alcolumbre scheduled a joint session to promulgate the constitutional amendment abolishing the 6x1 work schedule, a key Lula campaign pledge, just before the presidential runoff. The 75-1 Senate vote shows broad legislative support, but the timing is politically charged as Lula seeks to leverage the win. The amendment's implementation details and economic impact remain uncertain.
