Beatriz Kicis Torrents de Sordi (born 19 September 1961), better known as Bia Kicis, is a Brazilian politician, activist, YouTuber, lawyer, and former attorney general for Brazil's Federal District. A self-declared right-winger,[1] she defends the use of verifiable paper records to prevent electoral fraud in the Brazilian electronic voting system.[2] Kicis was elected federal deputy for the Brazilian Chamber of Deputies in the 2018 general election.[3]
Kicis signed the Madrid Charter, a document drafted by the right-wing Spanish party Vox that describes left-wing groups as enemies of Ibero-America involved in a "criminal project" that are "under the umbrella of the Cuban regime".[4]
She was born on September 19, 1961, in Resende, Rio de Janeiro.[5] She is the daughter of Rubeni Torrents Pereira, a retired military engineer, and Leda Pfeil Kicis Torrents Pereira, who held a degree in psychology. Kicis graduated in law from the University of Brasília.[6]
