Padilha says government wants to improve articulation with Congress

The Minister of Institutional Relations, Alexandre Padilha, said today (2nd), in São Bernardo do Campo (SP), that the government will work to improve articulation with the National Congress. “We will always work to improve [a articulação]. What does not change is the disposition of the dialogue, ”she assured. “This is a government that does not create conflict and does not create unnecessary wars, as was done by the previous government. [de Jair Bolsonaro]”, he added. According to the minister, the goal is to work to “continue to assemble the government and the political base”. This will be done, according to him, through dialogue, “including with parties that declare themselves to be in opposition, but that have contributed a lot to the government’s votes.” “The government always listens to criticism and demands that may appear, always with great humility. This is a government that listens, seeks to work and improve what needs to be improved”, he explained. “And it is with this attitude that we will seek to work and continue approving projects that are a priority for the government,” he added. This week, the president of the Chamber of Deputies, Arthur Lira (PP-AL), criticized the lack of articulation and said that there was a “widespread dissatisfaction” of federal deputies with the government. “There is no feeling, there are no requests, there are no new actions, what there is is a generalized dissatisfaction of the deputies and, perhaps, of the senators with the lack of articulation of the government, and not of one or another minister”, said Lira. Willingness for dialogue In response to Lira’s speech, the minister reinforced that the government is always willing to dialogue. “I always say that there are no first-timers here. Calm sea does not make a good sailor. We always listen to all the positions of the presidents of both Houses [Câmara e Senado] and parliamentarians with great humility, and the government always needs to dialogue, listen to grassroots and opposition leaders,” said Padilha, while participating in an event at the Metallurgist Union. Despite the criticism the government has been receiving, the minister said the week ended well. For him, the results that the country obtained on employment, on the 1.9% growth of the Gross Domestic Product (GDP) in the first quarter of this year and on the Provisional Measure that restructures the Esplanada dos Ministérios, which was approved by Congress, were positive. . “It was a positive week for Brazil,” said Padilha.
