Janja Lula da Silva campaign activities

Overview

First Lady Rosângela Lula da Silva, known as Janja, has been actively participating in President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva’s reelection campaign activities. In early September, during a rally in Teresina, Piauí, Janja criticized the Bolsonaro family, alleging they lack a national project and prioritize personal interests. She characterized the previous Bolsonaro administration as a period of “barbarism” and warned that their return to power would cause national regression. By mid-September, Janja continued her campaign involvement in Brasília, participating in events such as decorating cars and singing jingles. During these appearances, she declined to comment on ongoing debates within the Supreme Federal Court (STF) regarding a potential investigation into Minister Alexandre de Moraes. On September 15, Janja continued her activities in Brasília, where she declined to answer journalist questions regarding the STF investigation into Moraes. This occurred as the STF plenary debated the possible opening of an investigation against the Minister, a process that faced potential delays following a request by Minister Flávio Dino. On September 19, Janja addressed supporters in Florianópolis, Santa Catarina. Describing the state as a “bastion of resistance against the far-right,” she characterized the local political environment as “hostile,” particularly for women. Janja, who noted she was born in Santa Catarina, urged left-wing militants to use educational approaches to discuss economic and social issues with undecided voters rather than engaging in confrontation. She also encouraged women to participate more actively in political debate. During the same rally in Florianópolis, President Lula criticized the agribusiness sector for its political resistance to his administration. He argued that the sector “should kneel to me” due to the record levels of federal funding and credit provided to agriculture under his mandate.
