The measure is meant to prevent the federal government from reintroducing a controversial “anti- homophobia ” program that was withdrawn by the administration of President Dilma Rousseff in May, following protests against its sexually explicit content by Evangelicals and Catholics in the national congress. The program, called “Schools Without Homophobia,” is currently being revised and is expected to be reintroduced soon. Although President Dilma has expressed her intention to remove objectionable videos that sought to justify the homosexual lifestyle in a graphic manner, opponents of the program remain doubtful.
