The Chamber of Deputies (Portuguese: Câmara dos Deputados) is a federal legislative body and the lower house of the National Congress of Brazil. The chamber comprises 513 deputies, who are elected by proportional representation to serve four-year terms. The current president of the Chamber is the deputy Rodrigo Maia (DEM-RJ), who was elected in July 14, 2016 to serve for the remainder of the 2015-2016 term.
Legislatures
The legislatures are counted from the first meeting of the Chamber of Deputies and of the Senate, on 6 May 1826, in the imperial era (the Chamber of Deputies met for preparatory sessions from 29 April 1826 to elect its officers and conduct other preliminary business, but the Legislature was formally opened on 6 May). The Chamber of Deputies and the Senate were created by Brazil's first Constitution, the Constitution of the Empire of Brazil, adopted in 1824. The numbering of the legislatures is continuous and counts all bicameral legislatures elected since the adoption of the 1824 Constitution including the imperial General Assembly and the republican National Congress. The previous constituent and legislative assembly of the Empire of Brazil, a unicameral national assembly convened in 1823 and dissolved by Emperor Pedro I before the Constitution was adopted, is not counted. The inauguration of a new composition of Chamber of Deputies for a four-year term of office marks the start of a new Legislature.
In the imperial era the national legislature was named General Assembly. It was made up of the Chamber of Deputies and the Senate. Senators were elected for life and the Senate was a permanent institution, whereas the Chamber of Deputies, unless dissolved earlier, was elected every four years. When Brazil became a republic and a federal state the model of a bicameral Legislature was retained at the federal level, but the parliament was renamed National Congress. The National Congress is made up of the Chamber of Deputies and the Federal Senate. Both houses have fixed terms and cannot be dissolved earlier. Under Brazil's present Constitution, adopted in 1988, senators are elected to eight-year terms and deputies are elected every four years.
Each Brazilian state (and the Federal District) is represented in the Senate by three senators.
Elections to the Senate are held every four years, with either a third or two thirds of the seats up for election.
The number of deputies elected is proportional to the size of the population of the respective state (or of the Federal District). However, no delegation can be made up of less than eight or more than seventy seats. Thus the least populous state elects eight Federal Deputies and the most populous elects seventy. These restrictions favour the smaller states at the expense of the more populous states and so the size of the delegations is not exactly proportional to population.
Elections to the Chamber of Deputies are held every four years, with all seats up for election.

Old Republic[2]
- 21st Legislature (1890–1891), discharged the role of Constituent Congress (1890–1891). The act that summoned the elections for the Constituent Congress and that empowered it to draft a Constitution already established that the Congress would be made up of two Houses, an elected Senate with equal representation for the Brazilian States, and a Chamber of Deputies, each State having a number of Deputies proportional to the size of its population. During the drafting of the Constitution, the Congress was to meet in joint session. The Congress was required to adopt a Constitution that conformed to the republican form of government, and that preserved the recently declared Federal model of the State.

The Constitution was voted under duress.

- 45th Legislature (1975–1979)

During that legislature, the last military President handed over power to the first civilian Administration, still elected indirectly, by means of an Electoral College. The 1985 Electoral College, however, was placed under no duress, and elected the Opposition candidates for President and Vice-President. After the inauguration of the civilian Administration, the 47th Legislature passed a Constitutional Amendment,[5] empowering the next Legislature, that would convene in February 1987 after the 1986 legislative elections, to discharge the role of National Constituent Assembly, empowered to adopt a new Constitution to replace the one inheirited from the Military Regime.

Federal representation
The number of seats per state is distributed according to the number of inhabitants per state, according to the official measurement taken by the Brazilian Institute of Geography and Statistics through a census held each 10 years. The Brazilian population is represented by one deputy for each 362,013 inhabitants on average, but this proportionality is limited by having a minimum of eight members and a maximum of seventy members per state, these criteria being subject to an apportionment paradox.
Therefore, states with 3,258,117 inhabitants upwards have 9 to 70 deputies. Following this scenario for example the city of São Paulo with its 11,253,503 inhabitants[7] is represented by 31 deputies of the total members of the state and the rest of the state with its 28,670,588 inhabitants are represented by 39 MPs (Member of Parliament).[8]
There is a distorted representation of the Brazilian states in congress, having some groups of deputies representing on average more than the proportion of the population of the state, and others representing less. That proportionality means that Roraima is represented by a representative for every 51,000 inhabitants and, at the other extreme, São Paulo is represented by one representative for every 585,000 inhabitants. This difference is reflected in the representation of the states in the Brazilian Congress with deputations for states as Roraima with 681% of the population represented by their deputies in the Congress, and less proportionality for the population of the state of São Paulo with 63% of the population represented by their deputies in the Congress, where proportionality is the percentage of representatives in the chamber divided by the percentage of the population. The population of the state of São Paulo, because of the maximum limits of 70 MPs for any one state, give up having 40 more seats in congress compared to the other states.[9]

Bureau of the Chamber of Deputies of Brazil
The current composition of the Board of the Chamber of Deputies is the following:
President: Rodrigo Maia (DEM-RJ) (elected in July 14, 2016 to serve for the remainder of the 2015-2016 term,[10] after Eduardo Cunha was suspended by the Supreme Court in May 5, 2016.[11])

Standing committees
On March 6 of 2012, was defined division of committees between parties. The President's House, Marco Maia, believes that the proportionality between the parties / blocs must take into account the data of the last election. Thus, PT and PMDB, with the highest benches, were three committees (the PT made the choice first). DEM and PSDB, the two largest opposition, were two commissions each.[12] On the other hand, PSD, most harmed by this decision, filed a lawsuit in the Supreme Court (STF) trying to reverse this decision.[13]
The chair of the committee, was defined as follows:[14]

- ↑ Juridically, the National Constituent Assembly was a separate legal entity, distinct from the bicameral National Congress, but it was exclusively made up of the entire membership of the National Congress (the Senators and Federal Deputies that served in the 48th Legislature), and it even held its sessions in the plenary hall of the Chamber of Deputies, the same place were joint sessions of Congress usually gather. Also, the congressional staff served as the support staff for the Constituent Assembly. The only differences, therefore, between sessions of the Constituent Assembly and Joint Sessions of Congress were: first, that the President of the Senate was ex officio the President of Congress, and in that capacity he chaired all joint sessions of Congress; the Constituent Assembly, on the other hand, elected its own President, and the President of the Chamber of Deputies was chosen for that office. Secondly, under the norms then in force, the Directing Board of the Senate (made up of the President, the Vice-Presidents and the Secretaries of that House) served as the Directing Board for joint sessions of Congress. The Constituent Assembly, however, elected its Vice-Presidents and Secretaries from its entire membership, and it thus had a distinct Directing Board, that included members from the Senate and members from the Chamber of Deputies. Thirdly, when meeting in joint sessions of Congress Senators were still Senators, and Federal Deputies were still Federal Deputies, and if votes were taken during a joint session of National Congress, the members of both Houses deliberated separately. When the composition of Congress met as the Constituent Assembly, however, all members were simply members of the Constituent Assembly, without distinction regarding their origin as Senators or Federal Deputies, and the Assembly voted as a unicameral entity, so that all members, Senators or Federal Deputies, had an equal vote. The Constituent Assembly convened on 1 February 1987, the first day of the preparatory meetings of both Houses of Congress for the 48th Legislature; on that date, prior to the solemn opening of the Constituent Assembly, the new membership of National Congress met for the first time after the 1986 legislative elections: the new Senators were sworn-in at a meeting of the Senate, and an entirely new composition of the Chamber of Deputies was sworn-in at the first meeting of that House in the new Legislature. The Presidents, Vice-Presidents and Secretaries of both the Chamber of Deputies and the Senate were also elected on that date, in the said meetings of each House. The election for President of the Constituent Assembly, however, took place on the following day, 2 February 1987. Both the solemn opening session of the Constituent Assembly and the election of its President were chaired by the President of the Supreme Federal Court. The solemn joint session of Congress for the opening of the first annual session of the 48th Legislature, with the reading of the message from the President of the Republic reporting on the state of the Nation and presenting the government's ordinary legislative programme for the annual session ahead, was held on 1 March 1987. Senators and Federal Deputies continued their double role as members of Congress and members ex officio of the Constituent Assembly until Brazil's new Constitution was promulgated by the Constituent Assembly on 5 October 1988, at which point the Assembly concluded its business and ceased to exist.During that period from February 1987 to October 1988, separate meetings of the Houses of Congress, and joint sessions of Congress, transacted the ordinary legislative business, as the Legislative Branch of the Government then in existence, limited by the Constitution then in force, while when gathered as the Constituent Assembly, the legislators drafted the new Constitution with unlimited authority, and thus discharged their sovereign constituent power.
