巴西总统卢拉宣布提高主要现金转移计划的月度支付额，幅度达15%，同时承诺在公共卫生系统中免费提供减肥针剂1。根据该政策，受益家庭的月度补助将从约98英镑增至113英镑1，新措施定于10月19日生效，早于可能的总统大选第二轮投票日期1。这项政策预计将惠及15%至20%的选民，覆盖约5000万人或大约2700万具有投票资格的人，其中受益家庭的收入上限为每人32英镑1。
卢拉将此举定性为对通胀的调整，以保护贫困家庭的购买力1。然而，极右翼参议员弗拉维奥·博尔索纳罗称其为"绝望之举"，指控卢拉试图"收买贫人的选票"1。反对派引用2022年的先例来质疑此类政策的动机——当时博尔索纳罗宣布增幅达50%，随后被卢拉阵营指控滥用权力1。对此，研究员埃斯科瓦承认卢拉的意图也具有选举性，但强调所采取措施符合法律框架1。
President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva has announced a 15 percent increase to the monthly payments of Brazil's main cash transfer program, raising the benefit from approximately £98 to £113, alongside a commitment to provide free weight-loss injections through the public health system.1 The measures are set to take effect on October 19, just two weeks before the presidential election and ahead of a potential second-round runoff scheduled for October 25.1
The expanded welfare payments will benefit between 15 to 20 percent of voters, reaching approximately 50 million people, with eligibility limited to families earning no more than £32 per person.1 Lula characterized the increase as an inflation adjustment designed to protect the purchasing power of low-income households.1 However, right-wing Senator Flavio Bolsonaro denounced the announcement as an "act of desperation" and accused Lula of attempting to "buy the votes of the poor."1 Bolsonaro pointed to his own announcement in 2022 of a 50 percent welfare increase before that election as evidence of the practice.1
A researcher acknowledged that while Lula's electoral intentions were evident, the measures nonetheless complied with legal requirements.1
