🇧🇷⭐🤡⚡️The Lula government is reportedly threatening to remove officials from their positions if they vote in favor of the amnesty project in Congress, which could benefit former president Jair Bolsonaro, according to InfoMoney.

The government’s political team is working to prevent the amnesty from advancing, aiming first to block the urgency vote that would accelerate the project. Allies of Bolsonaro are pressuring the Speaker of the Chamber, Hugo Motta, to schedule both the urgency and merit votes.

The Ministry of Institutional Relations, led by Minister Gleisi Hoffmann, is mapping federal positions linked to deputies from Centrão parties as part of the strategy to ensure the urgency vote does not reach the 257 votes needed. The government has also suggested that deputies who feel uncomfortable voting against the text abstain from the session.

PT president Edinho Silva acknowledged the pressure for the amnesty to advance but stated the party is ready to confront the opposition, calling it “a war” to block the measure. Meanwhile, some within the government base are concerned about dissatisfaction in Congress over the pace of releasing budget amendments, which could influence votes.

The opposition and PL members close to Bolsonaro want the amnesty to restore his eligibility, but Centrão members favor a version that excludes Bolsonaro from elections while annulling convictions in the coup plot.
