An excerpt from a. is circulating on social media, accompanied by a misleading caption report from the Jornal Nacional of December 11, announcing changes to pension rules that will come into force in 2024. The pieces of disinformation, which claim that the changes occurred during the Lula government, omit that the pension reform was, in fact, approved by Congress during Bolsonaro’s administration.

In 2024, new rules for retirement based on contribution times will come into force, although changes have already been foreseen in the reform text approved in 2019. report from the Jornal Nacional shared by pieces of misinformation makes this clear.
