In 1986, Quadros ran for constituent federal deputy, but she had problems  with her candidacy, which forced her to join the Social Christian Party after her membership records disappeared. After her election in 1986, shortly before her inauguration, she left the PSC and joined the PTB (Brazilian Labor Party) and served until 1991. In 1987, she spoke in the Chamber of Deputies, defending parliamentarism and the popular vote for the election of Presidents of the Republic and members of the National Congress. Quadros was against the 5-year term of José Sarney, and against presidentialism. After a period at the PTB, she inscribed her name as one of the founders of the  Brazilian Social Democracy Party (PSDB) in 1988. In the second half of that same year, Leonel Júlio asked for the annulment of Tutu Quadros' mandate, saying that because she was an American naturalized, she could not continue in the Brazilian parliament. The case was filed by José Fernando Eichenberg, at the time, acting justice minister. Leaving the PSDB, she ran for re-election by the PMDB in 1990, without success. She then retired from politics and took up residence in the United States.
