About: clarify and debate the text approved in the Chamber of Deputies before voting

About: investigate and punish physical assaults between parliamentarians
Thank you. No problem. For me, Mr. President Hugo Motta, what disrespects this House and generates a negative image for the Brazilian population is when a PT (Workers' Party) Deputy slaps another Deputy in the face, and nothing is done; it's when, for example, there isn't a single word, including from Your Excellency, to condemn the aggression I suffered here at this Table.

About: establish and sign a CPMI to investigate INSS fraud
Do you know what is disrespect? It's when we have a CPMI to investigate the people who stole from elderly people at the INSS, and the President and the Rapporteur didn't sign it; that is, it already starts with a contradiction, it already starts with disrespect, because if it depended on them, the CPMI would not be installed.
