The Tuesday rallies were organized by the Central Workers Union (CTB), Brazil's largest labor union umbrella organization, ahead of an expected vote by lawmakers on the measure.


Approximately 3,000 demonstrators showed up in front of the National Congress in the federal capital of Brasilia, where they briefly clashed with police.


In other cities, crowds of less than 500 people attended the protests. In Sao Paulo, Brazil's financial and industrial nerve center, less than 1,000 people attended.
