Supporters of the impeachment of Brazilian President Dilma Rousseff follow on big screens in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, as lawmakers get close to be votes needed to authorize her impeachment to go ahead, on April 17, 2016.
Brazilian lawmakers on Sunday reached the two thirds majority necessary to authorize impeachment proceedings against President Dilma Rousseff. The lower house vote sends Rousseff's case to the Senate, which can vote to open a trial. A two thirds majority in the upper house would eject her from office. Rousseff, whose approval rating has plunged to a dismal 10 percent, faces charges of embellishing public accounts to mask the budget deficit during her 2014 reelection.
