Câmara dos Deputados

The Câmara dos Deputados is the lower house of the National Congress of Brazil, the legislative branch of the country's federal government. Founded in 1824, it consists of 513 members, termed as 'Deputies', who serve four-year terms. The Deputies represent the people of the country and are responsible for proposing and voting on legislation, overseeing the executive branch, and representing the citizens of their respective constituencies. The Câmara dos Deputados plays a vital role in Brazilian politics and is a cornerstone in the democratic process of Brazil. The number of deputies each state sends to the Câmara is proportional to its population size.
