Avante ( [a?v??nt?i] , lit. ' Forward ' ) is a centrist Brazilian political party . It was founded in 1989 by dissidents of the Brazilian Labour Party (PTB) as the Labour Party of Brazil ( Partido Trabalhista do Brasil , PTdoB) and is a minor force in Brazilian politics. ^[9]

]} PTdoB voted in favor of the impeachment of Dilma Rousseff .

In 2017, PTdoB changed its name to Avante , Portuguese for 'Forward'. For the Brazilian general election of 2018 , Avante joined the 'Sovereign Brazil' coalition, together with the Democratic Labour Party , in support of PDT candidate Ciro Gomes . Gomes obtained 12.47% of the votes, finishing third.

The party saw an increase of votes in the parliamentary vote, electing seven deputies; however, it failed to elect any senator. Following the election, Avante did not go into opposition like PTD, but remained neutral towards president Jair Bolsonaro . In the 2022 election Avante supported the centre-left candidate Luiz Inacio "Lula" da Silva ( Workers' Party , PT); the party increased its representation to seven deputies in such election.
