Marco Temporal

The Senate approved on Tuesday (9) the PEC instituting the marco temporal for indigenous land demarcation, limiting rights to occupations up to October 5, 1988, contradicting the STF's 2023 ruling. The proposal, reported by Esperidião Amin (PP-SC), now heads to the Chamber of Deputies after accelerated voting in two rounds on the same day. The measure aims for legal security but is criticized by indigenous peoples and opponents for ignoring expulsions and nomadic groups.
