The law is intended to cover "the entire period of political violence from 1999 to the present," and could, according to the AP news agency, lead to the release of imprisoned opposition figures and journalists, among others, if it is enacted.
The announcement from Rodríguez came in connection with a speech at the country's Supreme Court on Friday.
She also called for a new legal system and the closure of the Helicoide prison, where torture is said to have taken place. On Friday, US authorities also announced that all Americans in Venezuelan prisons had been released.
“We are pleased to confirm that the interim authorities have released all known US citizens detained in Venezuela,” the embassy in Caracas wrote on social media.
Rodríguez assumed control of the country in early January after the United States attacked the country and captured President Nicolás Maduro.
