Last month, newspaper O Estado de S. Paulo also stated that with the victories of Congressman Arthur Lira (Progressistas-AL) in the Chamber and Senator Rodrigo Pacheco (DEM-MG), the sectoral lobbies gain strength.
The Senate must accelerate the processing of proposals that regulate casinos. The argument: the collection of taxes may strengthen the Bolsa Família aid program coffers. The gambling lobby began to overcome resistance. Republicans, for example, linked to the Universal Church, tend to release the vote, as the newspaper revealed.
The victory of Congressman Arthur Lira (Progressistas-AL) in the Chamber rescued a group of parliamentarians who had been ostracized since the fall, almost five years ago, of Eduardo Cunha, president impeached in the House. Unlike his predecessor Rodrigo Maia (DEM-RJ), who had a clear liberal agenda, Lira will not operate with a pre-established economic agenda.
The new congressional leaders supported by Bolsonaro intend to release the casinos. Lira sympathizes with the idea. Gaming is the flag of the president of Progressistas party, Senator Ciro Nogueira (PI), among others.
