巴西数万人抗议一项法案, 将Jair Bolsonaro的监狱时间缩短为1月8日叛乱, Tens of thousands in Brazil protested a bill that could cut Jair Bolsonaro’s prison time for the Jan. 8 insurrection, sparking fears for democracy.

2025年12月14日, 数以万计的巴西人在大城市抗议国会一项法案, 该法案将减少前总统鲍尔索纳罗在2023年1月8日叛乱期间的徒刑, Tens of thousands of Brazilians protested on December 14, 2025, in major cities against a congressional bill that would reduce former President Jair Bolsonaro’s prison sentence for his role in the January 8, 2023, insurrection. 该法案由下议院通过,将允许两项定罪(企图政变和暴力推翻法治)同时执行,可能将博尔索纳罗27年以上刑期减为两年零四个月,并放宽假释条件。 The bill, passed by the lower house, would allow two convictions—attempting a coup and violent overthrow of the rule of law—to run concurrently, potentially cutting Bolsonaro’s over 27-year sentence to two years and four months, and easing parole conditions. 包括艺术家和左翼团体在内的抗议者谴责这项措施,认为这是试图保护袭击巴西利亚政府大楼的人,称其为对民主的威胁。 Protesters, including artists and left-wing groups, condemned the measure as an attempt to shield those who attacked government buildings in Brasilia, calling it a threat to democracy. 总统路易斯·伊纳西奥·卢拉·达席尔瓦表示,他将否决该法案,但法案的命运现在掌握在参议院的手中,因为公众的反对日益强烈。 President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva has signaled he would veto the bill, but its fate now rests with the Senate amid growing public backlash.
