Brazilian legislative push for STF reform and impeachment

Overview

Senator-elect Bia Kicis has positioned the impeachment of Supreme Federal Court (STF) Minister Alexandre de Moraes and the granting of amnesty to those convicted in the January 8 incidents as primary objectives for the right-wing bloc heading into 2027.

Kicis has advocated for significant structural judicial reforms to address the current system. Her proposals include implementing fixed terms of approximately ten years for STF ministers to prevent indefinite tenure, increasing the minimum age for entry, and requiring prior judicial experience. She suggested that removing Moraes would force other ministers to adhere more strictly to the constitutional framework and proposed transition rules to facilitate these changes.
