Bolsonaro supporter congresswoman Julia Zanatta (PL-SC) took her four-month-old daughter to the Chamber's plenary on the evening of Wednesday 6th.
The Santa Catarina native is one of the parliamentarians trying to obstruct the work of the National Congress to force the vote on the Amnesty Bill and the opening of impeachment proceedings against Supreme Court Justice Alexandre de Moraes.
Upon arriving at the plenary with the child, Zanatta was escorted by a legislative police officer.
The atmosphere in the Chamber of Deputies is tense this Wednesday night. Speaker Hugo Motta (Republicans-PB) called an in-person session to try to overcome Bolsonaro's obstruction.
