Michel Miguel Elias Temer Lulia (Brazilian Portuguese:[miˈʃɛwmiˈɡɛweˈli.ɐsˈtemeʁluˈli.ɐ]; born 23 September 1940) is a Brazilian politician, lawyer and writer who served as the 37th president of Brazil from 31 August 2016 to 1 January 2019. He took office after the impeachment and removal from office of his predecessor Dilma Rousseff. He had been the 24th vice president of Brazil since 2011 and acting president since 12 May 2016, when Rousseff's powers and duties were suspended pending an impeachment trial.[1]
The Senate's 61–20 vote on 31 August 2016 to remove Rousseff from office meant that Temer succeeded her and served out the remainder of her second term. In his first speech in office, Temer called for a government of "national salvation" and asked for the trust of the Brazilian people.[2] He also signaled his intention to overhaul the pension system and labor laws, and to curb public spending.[3]
A 2017 poll showed that Temer's administration had 7% popular approval, with 76% of respondents in favor of his resignation.[4] Despite widespread protests, Temer refused to step down.[5] He did not stand for president in the 2018 Brazilian general election and was succeeded by Jair Bolsonaro.
