Governor understands that there is a hardening of the positions on all sides: allies, opposition and even Supreme Federal Court; Idea is to give ‘kick’ for the agenda to thrive in Congress
The governor of São Paulo, Tarcísio de Freitas (Republicans), intends to reinforce conversations with the president of the Chamber of Deputies, Hugo Motta (Republicans-PB), about amnesty. According to allies, the governor believes in a favorable climate for approval of the project in the house. The reading, according to people close, is that a “kick” is missing for the text to be based, as the governor sees that most parliamentarians would vote favorably to forgiveness.
To the column, sources linked to the Bandeirantes Palace ensure that Tarcisio wants to intensify conversations and give Motta a “courage” in the coming days. The chief executive of São Paulo understands that there is a hardening of the positions on all sides – allies, opposition and even the Supreme Court – on the subject because the context “reached the extremes” and there is fear of retreat, but thinks that a gesture could change the trajectory.
At a press conference on Friday (28), Tarcísio said he intends to follow the trial of former President Jair Bolsonaro at Casa in Sao Paulo. At first, the tendency is for the governor of Sao Paulo to remain during the beginning of the week in internal agendas.
He also commented openly about amnesty. “I’ve been talking a lot to leaders about the Amnesty Bill, which we believe it’s a pacification factor,” he said. Tarcisio also reaffirmed “absolute conviction in Bolsonaro’s innocence.” “I don’t know what will happen, but I know he’s innocent. I was his minister,” he said.
