Protests Sweep Brazil As Citizens Decry Sentence-reduction Bill For Bolsonaro

People gather during a demonstration to oppose the sentence-reduction bill, known as PL da Dosimetria, that could pave the way for former Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro's amnesty, in Sao Paulo, Brazil, on December 14, 2025. The Brazilian Chamber of Deputies (the lower house of Congress) passes a controversial bill this week that could reduce the prison sentences for more than a thousand people convicted of crimes related to the January 8, 2023, assault on government buildings in Brasilia, including former President Jair Bolsonaro.
