SUMMARY:

The present text is the result of a research that had as its general objective to analyze the dynamics of parliamentary action of trans women and travesti who act in mandates for deputy in Brazil, and as specific objectives: to investigate the political agenda of the current legislative mandates in which trans women and travesti act; evaluate challenges and possibilities in the legislative performance of trans women and travesti; and understand how the categories of gender and race are present in the political activities of these deputies. The deputies chosen for the study were Érica Malunguinho and Robeyoncé Lima, from a collective mandate called Juntas. To conduct the research, we used a varied methodological design, which included a bibliographical review on the subject, conducting a semi-structured interview, and gathering institutional documents produced in each of the two mandates. The results showed that the deputies sought to share perspectives in their mandates, either through a plural team coordinated by Érica Malunginho, or by multiplying the voices and the possibility of building a new political project through the collective mandate, as in the case of Robeyoncé, with the Juntas. In addition, we observed that the candidacies of both were little driven by the party and had little funding in relation to cis and white candidates from higher classes, from different parties. As for the exercise of the mandate, it was possible to conclude that, in general, they still have difficult insertion and respect within the Assemblies, either due to episodes of transphobia, or because their right to speak is denied. In addition, the conviction in the restitution of possession and in a political project that is pedagogical represents what the mandates of Robeyoncé Lima and Érica Malunguinho bring to their respective legislative assemblies.
