A Genial/Quaest poll released Sunday shows 52% of Brazilians oppose reducing sentences for those involved in the January 8 attacks, including former President Jair Bolsonaro.
Supreme Court Minister Alexandre de Moraes decided on Saturday to suspend the application of the Dosimetry Law, which reduces sentences for those convicted in the January 8 attacks. The measure awaits the Court's plenary analysis of the constitutionality of the rule promulgated by Congress on Friday. Reactions from opposition and government politicians followed quickly.

Brazil's Congress overrode President Lula's veto on the Dosimetria bill on Thursday (April 30), potentially reducing sentences for those convicted of coup-related acts, including Jair Bolsonaro. Cases will be reviewed individually by the STF. The move represents the government's second consecutive loss in Congress.
President Lula will formally announce his veto of the Dosimetria Bill—previously passed by Congress to ease penalties for Jair Bolsonaro and January 8 convicts—at a January 8, 2026, event marking the coup attacks' third anniversary. Planalto sources say allies, not the Executive, would challenge any congressional override in the STF.
