Personal life

Macris was born to Ivo Macris and Laura Macris (née Tuckmantel) in the city of Americana.[1] His son, Cauê Macris, is also a politician.[2] Before entering politics Macris worked as a lawyer.[1]

Political career

From 1972 to 1974 Macris served in the city council of his home town of Americana. In 1975 he was elected to the São Paulo Legislative Assembly where he served as president from 1999 to 2001.[1] In 2017 his son Cauê was elected president of the São Paulo Legislative Assembly, becoming the first father-son duo to have served as presidents.[3]

In the 2006 Brazilian general election Macris was elected to the Federal Chamber of Deputies.[4]

In May 2010 Macris voted in favour of the Ficha Limpa or "Clean Record Act" which barred politicians who had been impeached from holding office.[5]

Macris voted in favor of the impeachment motion of then-president Dilma Rousseff.[6] He voted in favor raising the spending ceiling of Brazil's government and the 2017 Brazilian labor reforms[7] Macris voted in favor of a similar corruption investigation into Rousseff's successor Michel Temer.[8]

In November 2016, Macris opposed "caixa 2" amnesty bill,[9] along with fellow federal deputies Onyx Lorenzoni,[9] Alessandro Molon,[10] Fernando Francischini,[11] Carlos Sampaio,[11] Joaquim Passarinho,[11] and Senators Alvaro Dias[12] and Ana Amélia Lemos,[13] listening to the claims of the civil society that signed for the approval of the 10 Anti-corruption Measures, and of the Public Prosecutor's Office, author of the bill.[9]

gollark: No generics, reliance on compiler magic, utterly horrific versioning, ugly syntax, multiple returns instead of ADTs/tuples.

gollark: Go(lang) = bad.
gollark: ``` [...] MIPS is short for Millions of Instructions Per Second. It is a measure for the computation speed of a processor. Like most such measures, it is more often abused than used properly (it is very difficult to justly compare MIPS for different kinds of computers). BogoMips are Linus's own invention. The linux kernel version 0.99.11 (dated 11 July 1993) needed a timing loop (the time is too short and/or needs to be too exact for a non-busy-loop method of waiting), which must be calibrated to the processor speed of the machine. Hence, the kernel measures at boot time how fast a certain kind of busy loop runs on a computer. "Bogo" comes from "bogus", i.e, something which is a fake. Hence, the BogoMips value gives some indication of the processor speed, but it is way too unscientific to be called anything but BogoMips. The reasons (there are two) it is printed during boot-up is that a) it is slightly useful for debugging and for checking that the computer[’]s caches and turbo button work, and b) Linus loves to chuckle when he sees confused people on the news. [...]```I was wondering what BogoMIPS was, and wikipedia had this.
