Governors charge less ideology and more government result

The governors present in the 14th Lide Investment Forum, held this week in New York, made a joint appeal – still informal – for less ideology and more concrete delivery by the powers. The predominant assessment was that the country needs to get out of “easy speech”To focus on structuring reforms, legal certainty, fiscal responsibility and long -term planning.

The meeting participated in the governors (RS), (GO), (PE), (DF), (RJ), (ES) and (SC). In common, the discourses pointed out that states have made their part – with fiscal balance, poverty reduction, and stimulating the private sector – while the federal sphere skates in polarizations and hesitates to assume unpopular reforms.

“We won the election, made the reforms, reduced the payroll, recovered the ability to invest and face the problems of the state without fighting with people. Brazil needs a depolarization agenda”, Said Eduardo Leite.

“It is not possible to continue governing a presidentialism that has no control over the budget”Said Caiado, in criticizing the fragility of political articulation in the Plateau. For him, the current model restricts governance and pierces projects. He also defended the end of reelection, understanding that those who launch the dispute cannot face the thorny themes.

Already the capixaba Renato Casagrande proposed a more technical approach and sustained by data. He emphasized the results of Espírito Santo – a Note in Fiscal Management, negative public debt, improvement in safety and education rates – and a decarbonization fund of R $ 500 million with oil resources. “Public machine organization and fiscal responsibility are not left or right flags. Are prerequisites for any government to work”He said.

Governor Raquel Lyra highlighted Pernambuco’s logistics and energetic potential, focusing on energy transition, combating water poverty and partnerships with private initiative. “We don’t just want to put solar plate. We want to manufacture technology, export innovation and generate income to the people“, These.

Claudio Castro charged legal certainty, saying that the lack of predictability in institutional relations removes foreign investment. “Investor asks what is the executive’s relationship with the legislature and the judiciary. Brazil still has an image of instability. This needs to change“, These.

Ibaneis Rocha, in turn, praised the role of states in democratic and economic stability. And amended a self -ease: “TEMOS THE BEST GOVERNORS IN THE HISTORY OF BRAZIL”He said.

Jorginho Mello presented Santa Catarina as an example of a state that “has worked“. He cited employment, public safety and longevity rates.”There is a city that has not held anyone for 5 years. And who wants to undertake, finds red carpet”He said.

In different shades and styles, the governors converged in criticism of the excess of ideology of federal agendas. For them, Brazil needs more concrete actions, less polarization and an institutional environment that favors cooperation between federation entities and the productive sector. Said Casagrande: “The population is in a hurry and needs results”.
