José Aldo Rebelo Figueiredo (born 23 February 1956) is a Brazilian politician and a federal deputy elected by the state of

Chamber of Deputies of Brazil from 2005 to 2007.[1]

With President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva in Venezuela and Vice President José Alencar undergoing medical tests in the United States, Rebelo became the first communist to assume the duties of acting President of Brazil on 12 November 2006. His brief period in office lapsed the next day upon Lula's return.[2]

He was the main author of a controversial project to change Brazil's Forest Code introduced in the 1960s. Those changes, lobbied by Brazilian farmers, aimed to extend the areas that can be legally deforested. Although President Rousseff vetoed some parts of the law drafted under Rebelo's leadership and finally passed in May 2012, critics such as the WWF saw the law as a catastrophe for the Amazon forest.[3][4]

Rebelo was the

Solidariedade.[11] In August 2021, he launched himself as a presidential candidate again, besides not being affiliated with any party.[12] In March 2022, Rebelo joined the Democratic Labour Party (PDT).[13] In April of 2024, he joined to MDB.[14]
