Brazilian political proposals for public security

Overview

During the Brazilian political campaign, candidates have introduced various proposals aimed at strengthening public security and combating organized crime.

Initial proposals focused on legislative and judicial reforms. Candidates such as Coronel Tadeu advocated for harsher penalties for violent crimes committed by militias and paramilitary groups, aligning with discussions to classify such acts as heinous crimes. Additionally, candidate Davi Davino Filho proposed lowering the age of criminal responsibility to 14 years to prevent criminal organizations from recruiting adolescents.

Subsequent proposals shifted toward bolstering the capacity of security forces through recruitment and specialized patrols. Colonel Vinícius Almeida proposed annual public examinations to ensure a steady replacement of officers and prevent staffing shortages. In Mato Grosso, Wellington Fagundes proposed new exams to address officer deficits, the expansion of the Special Border Group (Gefron), increased rural patrols, and the establishment of a dedicated Secretariat for Women to combat femicide.
