Flavio Bolsonaro: Now, there is a contradiction regarding what the Rapporteur said here from this podium, because he criticized the Rapporteur so much, criticized the report so much and comes here wanting to vote the report produced and approved there in the Chamber of Deputies exactly as it arrived, with the excuse that it cannot go back to the Chamber?
Flavio Bolsonaro: It seems to me much more like a war from Alagoas, because, without citing names here, clearly President Renan Calheiros was referring to Deputy Arthur Lira, with a series of adjectives directed at him — with all due respect, President Renan, but that is not the issue here.
We cannot give up improving the bill with the justification, with all the quotes, "that this will go back to the Chamber," and approve a text that will destroy liberal professionals, with the argument that we must have speed, when we have every condition to make the changes here and for this text to go to the Chamber again, without any problem.
Flavio Bolsonaro: It seems there is a concern that this text, by going to the Chamber, will return to the hands of Deputy Arthur Lira, and then there is an electoral problem implied here, between the lines of this bill, which is not appropriate for this discussion, it is not appropriate to contaminate the debate.
Flavio Bolsonaro: Therefore, Mr. President, we will vote in favor of the bill, but we will defend here Senator Carlos Portinho's separate-vote motion, which deals precisely with liberal professionals, because, beyond what I have said here, the Lula Government has such an obsession with taxing, taxing, taxing, with levies, with tax, tax, that it increases revenue by reaching into the taxpayer's pocket and yet spending still increases.
