Trajectory
Luiz Eduardo Carneiro da Silva de Souza Lima was born on December 10, 1977, in Rio de Janeiro. Before entering politics, he built a successful career as a professional swimmer, holding South American records in the 400m and 500m freestyle events and participating in the Olympic Games. A graduate in Physical Education from Estácio de Sá University, he worked as a swimming instructor and coach before transitioning to politics.
In his political career, Luiz Lima was elected federal deputy for Rio de Janeiro in 2018 (term 2019-2023) by the PSL and re-elected in 2022, now by the PL, assuming office for the 2023-2027 legislature. In 2025, he migrated to the NOVO party, aligning himself with the discourse of political renewal and efficient management.
In the National Congress, Luiz Lima has focused his work on sports, education, and health. He was president of the Sports Committee of the House of Representatives during his term. He is a member of the Education and Sports committees, and a member of special committees such as the one for PLP 234/24 (Sports Incentive Law). As of 2025, he is listed as the author of 488 proposals and rapporteur of 9 legislative projects, according to data from the House of Representatives. His parliamentary trajectory expresses a profile that blends elite sports experience, commitment to educational and sports policies, and a party affiliation focused on efficiency and institutional renewal.

Luiz Lima received the Parliamentary Excellence Award from the Politicians Ranking in every year of the 57th Legislature (2023-2026), being the 2nd best parliamentarian in Rio de Janeiro and 37th in the overall ranking for the Legislature.
