Eliseu Lemos Padilha (born December 23, 1945) is a Brazilian lawyer and politician, who was appointed by Dilma Rousseff as the Chief-Minister of the Brazilian Civil Aeronautics Government Department. He was in office from January 1, 2015 to December 1, 2015. He has also served as Chief-Minister of Transport and Infrastructure between 1997 and 2001 (appointed by Fernando Henrique Cardoso) and four terms as Federal Congressman of the State of Rio Grande do Sul, his birthplace. He is one of the only ministers in Brazilian history to have resigned from a ministerial office because of his divergent position from Dilma's government policies.
