PSOL Sets March 7 Vote on PT Federation Proposal

Internal resistance in both parties leaves the outcome uncertain.

Overview

  • PSOL president Paula Coradi set the national deliberation for March 7 after a meeting in Brasília with PT leaders including party chief Edinho Silva.
  • PT formally presented the federation plan late last year, while PSOL remains in a federation with Rede that leaders expect to renew.
  • Poder360 reports several PSOL currents lean toward rejecting the proposal, even as Guilherme Boulos’s Revolução Solidária backs it.
  • PT figures are also divided, with Jilmar Tatto praising the idea and Carlos Zarattini and José Dirceu voicing skepticism over recent frictions.
  • A recent clash over a now-revoked decree on Amazon river concessions and ongoing state-level talks in SP, MG, RS, SC and SE—including a possible Manuela D’Ávila Senate bid in RS—frame the negotiations.
