💢 BREAKING: Bolivia’s Chamber of Deputies voted to repeal Law 1341, dismantling key legal restrictions that limited the president’s ability to impose a “state of exception” and deploy the military during internal unrest. The law, passed in 2020, capped emergency powers at 60 days, required justification for suspending civil rights, and restricted military force against demonstrations. The repeal comes after four weeks of nationwide protests and road blockades demanding the resignation of President Rodrigo Paz. Supporters say the law prevented authorities from clearing disruptions that have blocked food, fuel, and medical supplies from reaching major cities like La Paz. Human rights groups warn the repeal removes critical safeguards and gives the executive branch sweeping powers to order a military crackdown on protesters by decree.
