The leader of the House of Representatives, (PB), said on Saturday (1st) that, if elected president of the House, he will work for strengthening the legislature and will defend parliamentary immunity.
“Together we will institutionally strengthen the Chamber, maintain its autonomy and independence in relation to the other powers. It is healthy to understand that a country management is made with respect and the assumption of harmony,” said Hugo. In response, he heard applause from deputies in plenary.
Considered probable next president of the House, the deputy spoke in the plenary in session of the election of the Board of Directors. The other two candidates, Pastor Henrique Vieira (PSOL-RJ) and (Novo-RS), spoke before Hugo-the order was defined by draw.
“The guarantee of parliamentary prerogatives is essential for the strengthening of the people, because each of us, deputies and deputies, is directly related to the wishes of those who have given us the vote,” he said.
The speech was a message to the (Federal Supreme Court). And they question, for example, measures taken by speeches and statements on social networks and the house’s own plenary.
His speech aimed at congressmen, with the aim of showing that he will not change when taking over the presidency. He said he will not receive a different brooch from others and will remain humble, citing leaders like Nelson Mandela and Mahatma Gandhi. “No president stops using this brooch that identifies us and equals us,” he said. “I am one more among you, and as president it will not change,” he said.
Hugo also promised to ensure predictability in the decision of the agenda, previously establishing which sessions will be in person and which will be virtual, distribute more equitable reports of the projects among congressmen and give transparency and voice to deputies at the College of Leaders.
Points much criticized by the low clergy in the conduct of the current president, (-al), who is ally of the Republican candidate.
Despite listing these differences, Hugo compared Lira to the former president of the Constituent Assembly Ulysses Guimarães in the achievements. “President Arthur Lira leaves us the biggest legacy of legislative approvals and real transformations, in the lives of the Brazilian, that this house can, with the participation of all, offer to the country since Ulysses Guimarães,” he said.
He also praised Deputies Antonio Brito (PSD-BA), Elmar Nascimento (Brazil-BA Union) and Isnaldo Bulhões (MDB-AL), who put themselves as pre-candidates, but gave up on running to support him. And thanked the president of his party, Deputy Marcos Pereira (SP), for waiving the candidacy so that he could be the name of consensus between Lira, the government and most parties. He said he would never compete “for a personal project.”
Hugo still promised his colleagues to make decisions in a collegiate way. “I hope to miss as little as possible, listening to the fullest,” he said. “I will be what I have always been-otherwise, but the same. I will be a president, not a president. [da tribuna] For Ali [a cadeira do presidente] It cannot be the distance between humility and arrogance, “he said.
He still made a comparison that he will be a president with “H” not of Hugo, but “humility” and “harmony”. At another point, he stated that “there will never be unanimity” and that the House has a “multiplicity of voices.” “But the president’s decisions, if made with wisdom and humility, can never be personal decisions.”
Regiment predicts that each candidate has up to ten minutes to make a speech. Then Lira will speak.
The vote is secret, and each deputy votes in 11 positions: president, two vices, four secretaries and four alternates. It is elected who has the absolute majority of the votes (257 of the 513 chairs).
Chosen by Lira to be his candidate for his succession, Hugo entered the dispute after a turnaround with the. The deputy got official support from almost every party parties, going from PT to PL of.
Faced with this great range of support, throughout his campaign, Hugo avoided committing to thorny themes to avoid noise that could harm his candidacy. This week, launched the slogan “on Brazil side”.
