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] However, the federation was renewed in 2026.[8]
