Stung by a Supreme Court rejection of their proposal to restrict recognition of Indigenous lands, Brazil's congressional farm lobby is seeking quick passage on Wednesday of a bill to counter the top court's decision.
The caucus representing agribusiness is also backing bills to amend the Constitution that guarantees the right of Indigenous people to their ancestral lands, its president Pedro Lupion told Reuters.
The offensive could deepen a divide between a conservative-led Congress and a Supreme Court that many lawmakers criticize for judicial over-reach. Though terms have not been decided by the Supreme Court, compensation for expelled farmers could be expensive for a government that has limited resources and is battling to curb Brazil's fiscal deficit. And Lupion's lobby is pressing for compensation to be paid before evictions and not after.
