Brazilian-American Chamber of Commerce of Florida | P.O. Box 310038, Miami, FL 33231 The Brazilian-American Chamber of Commerce is proud to announce Walter Schalka as the Brazilian recipient of the 2023 Person of the Year Awards. For the past 51 years, the Chamber has honored as “Person of the Year” two prominent leaders, one Brazilian and one American, who have been particularly instrumental in forging closer ties and enhancing the relationship between Brazil and the United States. The American honoree will be announced soon.   Walter Schalka: Walter Schalka has served as CEO of Suzano since January 2013. He has played a strategic role in Suzano’s evolution, including the 2019 combination of Suzano Pulp and Paper and Fibria Celulose, and has led the company’s success by developing new products and innovating ways to meet customer needs. Mr. Schalka began his career at Citibank and later joined the holding company of Grupo Maepar. In 1989, he assumed the role of Chief Financial Officer at Dixie Lalekla, later becoming General Manager and, in 1991, CEO (following the merger that created the Dixie Toga Group). In May 2005, he joined Grupo Votorantim as CEO of Votorantim Cimentos, where he was responsible for operations in Brazil and 14 other countries. In January 2013, he became CEO of Suzano. Mr. Schalka holds a Bachelor of Science in Engineering from Instituto Tecnológico de Aeronáutica (ITA) and a graduate degree in Business Administration from Fundação Getúlio Vargas in São Paulo (FGV-SP). He also completed executive programs at the International Institute for Management Development (IMD) (Switzerland) and Harvard University (USA). Mr. Schalka was nominated as Fastmarkets RISI’s “Latin American CEO of the Year - Pulp and Paper Industry” in 2015, 2016, 2017, 2018, 2020, and 2022. In 2018, he was elected as one of the “15 Best CEOs in Brazil” by Forbes.

The Board is comprised of a broad spectrum of leading Brazilian and U.S. firms that are active in both countries. The Board’s selection of Mr. Schalka recognizes the prominent and influential role he has played in growing Suzano into the world’s largest hardwood pulp producer and a leader in the Latin American market. His commitment to ESG – particularly in the areas of climate change, biodiversity, and social development – is admirable and has brought about measurable and lasting change, factors that coincide with the values promoted by the Chamber.

This is HUGE – so much was at stake in these races. With these three victories, Democrats just stopped Pennsylvania’s extremist GOP from passing dangerous restrictions on abortion and creating barriers to the ballot box ahead of 2024. But we can’t let our guard down now – Republicans pour money into special elections, and they refuse to cut their losses now. With less than two weeks until our next must-win special election, we’re counting on our grassroots supporters to give Democrats the resources they need to go toe-to-toe with their Republican opponents in special elections across the country. The GOP isn’t going to let a single special election opportunity pass by without a fight, so we need to be prepared: Will you chip in $7 right now to help elect state Democrats who will work to defend abortion access, voting rights, and so much more in states like Pennsylvania and across the country? If you've stored your payment information with ActBlue Express, your donation will process immediately. Chip in $7 now » Chip in $25 now » Chip in $50 now » Chip in $100 now » Chip in another amount » With Joe McAndrew, Abigail Salisbury, and Matt Gergely in the Pennsylvania House, Democrats will be able to protect abortion access, defend our democracy, make our communities safer, and build a better future for Pennsylvanians. And if we keep up the momentum, we can replicate these wins in New Hampshire – but we need you with us. Can we count on you today? Team DLCC DONATE » - North Carolina Supreme Court decisions in Harper v. Hall in 2022 were monumental in our fight against gerrymandering and for protecting North Carolinians’ ability to exercise their right to be heard. But last week, newly sworn-in justices on North Carolina’s Supreme Court showed their extremist views by agreeing to reconsider the Harper v. Hall ruling that struck down the legislature’s gerrymandered state senate map. ‘’This is not a function of legal principle -- it is an indication of political opportunism.’’ -- A.G. Eric Holder HELP US ADVOCATE FOR FAIR MAPS Our affiliate, the National Redistricting Foundation (NRF), has been in North Carolina fighting gerrymandered maps for the past five years. And amidst this attempt to politicize the state’s judicial branch, the NRF remains steadfast in its support of the plaintiffs in Harper v. Hall, who are standing tall against gerrymandering. So, what’s changed? Let’s be clear. Nothing in state law has changed. But Republican legislative leadership filed their petition to undermine the state’s system of checks and balances, under their belief that new justices on the state supreme court would side with them simply because they have the same party affiliation. We can’t stress enough that the fair maps movement is about putting people over politics. And we won’t stand for lawmakers continuing to damage our democratic infrastructure that safeguards people’s rights. We need your help. All On The Line is committed to advocating for fair maps in North Carolina and across the county. Will you make a donation to support our fight to end gerrymandering?

President Biden stepped off the stage after his State of the Union address, and Democrats are rallying behind his commitment to protecting reproductive rights, creating good-paying jobs and standing up for democracy – BUT we're still missing your response.  We need your thoughts, because President Biden made it clear he can't win this fight without you. And we have no choice but to close this poll at midnight.
