The Mission Party (Portuguese: Partido Missão, stylised MISSÃO) is a Brazilian right-wing political party, created by the Free Brazil Movement (MBL).[8] It was founded in 2023.

On 26 June 2025, the umbrella reached the minimum number of signatures required by the Brazilian Election Justice (TSE) to request party registration.[9] On 23 September 2025, deputy Electoral Prosecutor General, Alexandre Barbosa, stated that all the requirements for the formation of the party were met and made official.[10] The party was officially registered by the Superior Electoral Court on 4 November, 2025.[11]

Ideology

According to the party, its main objectives include combating corruption and ending privileges in public service; enforcing law and order, as in toughening criminal and procedural laws and waging war on criminal organizations; prioritizing education and public health; promoting industrialization, especially in the Brazilian Northeast; respecting fiscal responsibility and reducing the size of the state; and combating deforestation and pollution, with an emphasis on sustainability. The party proposes a platform that combines elements of economic liberalism and social conservatism.[12][13][14] Other foundational principles include nationalism and "defense of classical Greco-Roman and Judeo-Christian culture values".[15]

Although considering themselves right-wing, they reject the labels of liberals and conservatives, saying "this dichotomy is a 20th century American agenda that does not translate into today's politics".[15]

The Free Brazil Movement chose the title "The Yellow Book" to parody Mao Zedong's "Little Red Book" and Muammar Gaddafi's "Green Book" in a book that would best represent its principles. In it, the movement now advocates for some extent of state intervention in the economy and society, contrary to the position it had in the past.[16]

Supporters include congressman Kim Kataguiri and former São Paulo State representative Arthur do Val, who are both currently members of Brazil Union.[17]

Notes

  1. ^ Although much of its ideology fits on the right of the political spectrum, the party rejects such a label and positions itself as a pragmatic alternative to the Brazilian political establishment because of what it considers to be "stereotyped": the center is associated with the Centrão, the right has been appropriated by Bolsonarism and parts by the Centrão, the left is associated with Lulism and socialist policies that the party argues have been "disastrous" in Latin America.[7]
