The PSDB Cidadania Federation (Portuguese: Federação PSDB Cidadania), participating in elections as the Always Forward Federation (Portuguese: Federação Sempre pra Frente),[4] is an electoral and parliamentary group formed by the Brazilian Social Democracy Party (PSDB) and Cidadania. Its program and statute were published on 11 May 2022 and registered by the Superior Electoral Court on 26 May.[5][6]
In 2025 Cidadania’s National Directory voted unanimously to end the federation in 2026 (in accordance with Brazilian electoral law, which mandates a minimum four-year duration for party federations following their official registration), alleging that the partnership had been disadvantageous to Cidadania, citing reductions in its representation at the municipal, state and federal levels.[7]
