	Leonel Brizola - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		During the presidency of Goulart (1961–1964) Brizola was an important supporter of his brother-in-law, first as governor and later as a deputy in the National Congress of Brazil.
		In April 1964, when a coup d'état successfully overthrew Goulart, Brizola was the only governor to offer support for the president, sheltering him in Porto Alegre, capital of Rio Grande do Sul while there was still hope to restore democracy.
		(Governor Miguel Arraes of Pernambuco also supported Goulart, but Arraes was jailed as soon as the coup was declared.) Because of his connection with Goulart, the military regime exiled Brizola in 1964; he went to Uruguay, where Goulart had gone into exile earlier that year.
