Approval Of The Base Text And Political Context

The Chamber of Deputies approved, in a symbolic vote held on September 3, 2025, the bill that prohibits the application of discounts on membership fees in the benefits of the INSS.

The measure, proposed by Murilo Galdino (Republicans-PB) and reported by Danilo Forte (Union-CE), gained strength after the scandal of the Operation Without Discount.

The operation was triggered by the Federal Police and the Office of the Comptroller General of the Union.

What Changes With The New Law

The change in the Social Security Law establishes that discounts on benefits paid by the INSS related to membership fees, contributions, or other amounts intended for unions and class entities are prohibited.

However, discounts related to loans, financing, and leasing operations remain authorized.

For this, the authorization must be personal, biometric, and electronically signed.

In addition, the bill includes the possibility of amortization of operations for advance payment of the pension benefit.

Thus, differentiated rules for banking contracts remain in effect.

Critiques And Political Disputes

Government officials linked to President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva’s base criticized the proposal.

For them, the measure weakens unions and entities that provide relevant services.

At the same time, it allows banks the freedom to carry out payroll-deducted loans.

During the debates, parliamentarians requested flexibility to allow specific discount authorizations.

The final text rejected this possibility.

In addition, there was dissatisfaction with the transfer of the definition of interest rates for payroll loans.

Previously, this function belonged to the National Social Security Council.

Now, the responsibility passes to the Monetary Council, composed of the Central Bank, the Ministry of Finance, and the Ministry of Planning.

Key Points Of The Project

Among the main approved measures, the following stand out:

Mandatory Refund Within 30 Days for undue charges, both from membership fees and from payroll loans.
Joint Liability Of The INSS, which must reimburse beneficiaries in case of non-return by banks or entities.
Use Of The Credit Guarantee Fund (FGC) to cover amounts when financial institutions in liquidation fail to make the return.
Active Search For Affected Beneficiaries, imposing on the INSS the duty to locate and rectify irregularities.
Seizure Of Assets Of Those Investigated in cases of proven fraud in illegal discounts.
Authority Of The CMN To Define Payroll Loan Interest Rates, replacing a responsibility that previously belonged to the CNPS.

Practical Impacts And Next Steps

With the approval of the base text, the deputies began analyzing the highlights still on the night of September 3.

The decision directly impacts millions of retirees and pensioners, who previously suffered from authorized deductions on payroll.

These deductions were often legally challenged.

Thus, the new legislation seeks to increase protection for insured individuals and tighten rules against abuses.

However, the proposal raises concerns among unions and retirement entities.

The next step will be the voting on the highlights.

This stage could confirm or adjust important details before presidential sanction.

The measure marks a structural change in the discount system on pension benefits.

It reinforces the supervisory role of the INSS and the Monetary Council.

So, Will This Change Represent More Security For The Insured Or Weaken Entities That Rely On Contributions?

Gaddafi built the world’s largest artificial river under the Sahara — it’s 4,000 km of giant pipes that pump 40,000-year-old fossil water to entire cities in Libya.

Discovery in Africa scares even scientists: a study published on April 23 reveals that the crust in Turkana has become so thin that it could pave the way for the continent’s division and the emergence of an ocean in the future, in a gigantic geological transformation.

Japanese garbage collectors treat filthy trucks as if they were dealership cars, and the obsession with cleanliness is so absurd that they invented a washing machine that only exists for this type of vehicle.

Seen from high in the stratosphere, a Lego Star Devourers rose to 34,988 meters attached to a balloon, returned to Earth intact, and entered the Guinness World Records in a record that seems like science fiction.

In 1991, Brazil’s GDP was almost double India’s, and today it is little more than half: while India grew 6.5% per year and trained engineers, Brazil preferred to train lawyers, and now it is rushing to strengthen ties with the world’s fourth-largest economy.

India built a 21.8-kilometer sea bridge to connect Mumbai to Navi Mumbai, and a journey of up to 120 minutes fell to about 20.

South America’s most famous oasis has an emerald lagoon formed by underground waters in the Peruvian desert. It is located 300 km from Lima, is surrounded by giant dunes, and holds a mysterious mermaid legend.

From July to August, Brazil turns into Japan: see the story behind the sakuras, where to find the cherry blossom, and how to enjoy the festivals even while in Brazil.

A Chinese giant that has been in Brazil for 20 years building roads and buildings has decided to put on boots and invade the Brazilian countryside, and the most curious detail is that it has its own bank, a factory in Minas Gerais, and claims that its tractors are also Brazilian.

A world without harvests? Drastic WMO report shows that extreme heat already exceeds limits in the field and threatens crops, livestock, fishing, and water.

Fiat Strada dominates April with almost 13 thousand units registered and shows why a compact pickup continues beating hatches, SUVs, and electric vehicles in the Brazilian market.

INSS maximum retirement in 2026 pays R$ 8,475 per month, but only 2.1 million Brazilians out of 40 million manage to reach this amount…

For the first time in history, millions of Brazilians will receive the 13th salary of 2026 without any Income Tax deductions — and the amount can arrive in full in their accounts.

Millions of Brazilians will have to work more in 2026: the score to retire has risen to 93 and 103, the minimum age has increased, and those who planned to retire this year may be in for a surprise.

Paternity leave increases from 5 to 20 days with Law 15.371/2026, which also created paternity pay through INSS and guaranteed job stability for fathers for up to 30 days after the end of the leave.

The new law No. 15,377, sanctioned by Lula and published in the Official Gazette of the Union on April 6, guarantees 3 days off for workers to undergo medical examinations.
