S. RES. 32 is a non-binding Senate resolution condemning the January 8, 2023, violent insurrection in Brazil, where supporters of former President Jair Bolsonaro stormed government buildings including the presidential palace, Congress, and Supreme Court. It expresses U.S. solidarity with Brazil's people and support for safeguarding Brazil's democratic institutions following the attack.

As a diplomatic statement - not a law - it does not impose legal requirements but formally aligns U.S. policy with Brazil's democratic defense.
