Leila Barros, leader of the group, thanked the president of the house, David Alcolumbre, and former President Rodrigo Pacheco for the space
The Women’s Bench Office was officially inaugurated this Wednesday (9.ab.2025) in the Federal Senate. The ceremony was attended by the group leader, senator (PDT-DF), from the president of the High House, (Union-AP), and other congressmen who are part of female representation.
The space was proposed by the former president (PSD-MG). In his speech, Leila Barros thanked the president of the House and Senator Mineiro, stating that the 2 were with the female bench “At all crucial moments.”
“All this was only possible because we didn’t walk alone. At no time. Presidents Rodrigo Pacheco and David Alcolumbre were with us at all crucial moments. First, ensuring the structure of positions. Now, delivering this physical space symbol and thirst of our ideas, struggles and joints.”he declared.
The senator of the Federal District defined the trajectory of the female bench as “Maturation” and from “Protagonism”. Still was thrilled to say that “The future senators will find a structure of work, struggle and collective construction in the cabinet”.
Alcolumbre said that the women in the house “The Senate of the Republic is greatly magnified” and that space was a promise that “David and Rodrigo took over at the beginning of their mandates”.
The charge for the cabinet was old. On February 19, the female bench gathered and debated about A cabinet, unlike other high -house benches. Another complaint was that, according to them, group guidelines are not treated as a priority.
At the time, (We can-MS) said to Poder360 who gave up running for the Senate presidency – he has been elected on February 1 – because he talked to Alcolumbre, on the condition of him prioritizing in his mandate the bench agenda and give the senators important reports, such as the budget.
