Gleisi on the Anti-Faction Bill: 'appointing Derrite as rapporteur contaminates the debate'
As the minister pointed out, "the appointment of the rapporteur for the matter is the prerogative of the Speaker of the House."
247 - The Minister of the Secretariat of Institutional Relations (SRI), Gleisi Hoffmann, criticized this Friday (7) the choice of Guilherme Derrite as rapporteur of Bill 5582/25, known as the Anti-Faction Bill, sent by the federal government to Congress.
In a post published on the social network X, the head of the SRI stated that "the appointment of the rapporteur for the matter is the prerogative of the Speaker of the House," Hugo Motta (Republicanos-PB). "The choice of the Secretary of Security of Governor Tarcísio de Freitas contaminates the debate with the electoral objectives of his political camp," wrote Gleisi.
"The government of President @LulaOficial sent the Anti-Criminal Faction Bill to the Legislature in the expectation of a consequential debate on combating organized crime, as demanded by Brazilian society. We will continue working in Congress to ensure that the public interest prevails and national sovereignty is safeguarded," added the minister.
The federal government submitted the bill following the deadliest police action in the history of the state of Rio de Janeiro, where 121 people died on the 28th in the Penha and Alemão complexes, in the northern zone of the state capital. The United Nations (UN) and human rights organizations condemned the police massacre.
In the Brazilian National Congress, the Parliamentary Commission of Inquiry (CPI) on Organized Crime was established, composed of 11 full senators and 7 alternates. Senators Fabiano Contarato and Alessandro Vieira (MDB-SE) are the president and rapporteur of the CPI.
President Lula's government announced the creation of an emergency office to coordinate actions to combat organized crime in Rio de Janeiro.
