About: grant more powers to the Attorney General's Office (AGU)
Mr. President, Members of the Chamber, I want to express my concern and speak here with the Rapporteur regarding this bill, which has caused much controversy and deals with increasing the powers of the Advocacia-Geral da União, especially of its head, Mr. Jorge Messias.
Why it was classified this way · 90% confidence expresses concern and criticism of the bill that expands the AGU's powers.
NeutralKim Kataguiri
345:34
About: grant more powers to the Attorney General's Office (AGU)
Several prosecutors, especially those linked to the Central Bank and to the autarchies, have expressed the view that this is a centralization of power in the hands of Jorge Messias and even an attempt to increase his powers, possibly to pave the way for his appointment to the STF, as an official note says.
Why it was classified this way · 72% confidence reports prosecutors' statements about the centralization of power.

About: grant more powers to the Attorney General's Office (AGU)
This also has precedents, Rapporteur. There was an attempt, initially in debates in the 1988 Constituent Assembly and later in a ruling on a writ of injunction, in which the Supreme Court would have recognized, despite the evident link, the non-subordination and non-absorption of the careers of the federal prosecutors by the Advocacia-Geral da União.
Why it was classified this way · 70% confidence cites historical legal precedents without taking an explicit position.
NeutralKim Kataguiri
346:23
About: grant more powers to the Attorney General's Office (AGU)
I saw earlier today, also in a report in Folha de S.Paulo, that there is concern that the AGU itself could take upon itself decisions involving the Central Bank.
Why it was classified this way · 70% confidence reports news about the AGU taking over decisions.
ForKim Kataguiri
346:37
About: guarantee the independence of the Advocacia-Geral da União from the Executive
I also bring a recent history of the use of influence, the use of the political power of the President of the Republic in relation to the Attorney General of the Union, for him to pressure changes in decisions and changes in legal opinions at the Ministry of Mines and Energy.
Why it was classified this way · 85% confidence denounces executive pressure on the AGU and calls for independence.
ForKim Kataguiri
346:57
About: maintain Central Bank autonomy
There would also be an intervention in the autonomy of the Central Bank, when we know that, fortunately, today we have an autonomous Central Bank, with the freedom to act and the freedom to supervise.
Why it was classified this way · 90% confidence explicitly defends the BC's autonomy and freedom of action.
NeutralKim Kataguiri
347:11
About: maintain Central Bank autonomy
It is no coincidence that, in a scandal involving the most powerful authorities of the Republic — left, right, center, from the Supreme Federal Tribunal — the Central Bank of Brazil still had the autonomy to initiate the liquidation of a bank that involved tens of billions of reais in corruption scandals and involved such powerful people.
Why it was classified this way · 72% confidence cites an example where the BC exercised autonomy in a bank liquidation.
AgainstKim Kataguiri
347:28
About: grant more powers to the Attorney General's Office (AGU)
So, in this dialogue with the Rapporteur, Deputy Lafayette, whom I respect, and given these concerns that have been raised, I request that this bill be withdrawn from the agenda.
Why it was classified this way · 95% confidence explicitly asks for the bill to be removed from the agenda.
NeutralKim Kataguiri
347:39
About: approve bill in the Constitution and Justice Committee before the Plenary
I understand that it was approved by a large majority, both from the Left and from the Right, in the Constitution and Justice Committee.
Why it was classified this way · 75% confidence reports that the bill was approved by a large majority in the CCJ.
ForKim Kataguiri
347:49
About: remove from the agenda the bill that expands powers of the Advocacia-Geral da União
But I think the Plenary should address this matter with a bit more calm, with a bit more serenity, so that everyone understands the repercussions of this text, why, on the one hand, there is an interest in selling it as a modernization of the careers within the Advocacia-Geral da União and, on the other hand, resistance from the very civil servants who will be affected by this legislation. Thank you, Mr. President.
Why it was classified this way · 80% confidence asks for calm and analysis of the repercussions before the plenary votes.
AgainstKim Kataguiri
362:59
About: grant more powers to the Attorney General's Office (AGU)
Mr. President, I really continue to view the text with great suspicion, first because I would not see so much pressure from the Attorney General of the Union if it were only a formal restructuring.
Why it was classified this way · 85% confidence expresses distrust of the text and questions the political pressure to approve it.
AgainstKim Kataguiri
363:13
About: grant more powers to the Attorney General's Office (AGU)
If there were no material change, there would not be this political pressure for this matter to move forward.
Why it was classified this way · 80% confidence asserts that political pressure indicates a material change, not mere restructuring.
NeutralKim Kataguiri
363:19
About: grant more powers to the Attorney General's Office (AGU)
The main argument used here is the following: there is no real change, nothing will change in reality, all bodies that are already subordinated to the Advocacia-Geral da União will remain subordinated.
Why it was classified this way · 72% confidence sets out the authors' argument that nothing would change in practice.
AgainstKim Kataguiri
363:31
About: grant more powers to the Attorney General's Office (AGU)
I very much doubt there would be this political mobilization around this matter if it were going to change nothing.
Why it was classified this way · 85% confidence says he/she doubts the argument that there would be no real change.
AgainstKim Kataguiri
363:37
About: reduce the autonomy of autarchies and regulatory agencies
What worries me is the possibility of reducing the autonomy of the autarchies, the autonomy of the regulatory agencies, the autonomy of the Central Bank and, at the same time, granting superpowers so that the Attorney General of the Union can take upon himself cases that should not fall within his competence, that should not be within his remit, because of the political influence to which he is subject. So, we recommend "no."
Why it was classified this way · 87% confidence expresses concern about the reduction of these entities' autonomy.
AgainstKim Kataguiri
411:00
About: approve projects without impact estimates and without a funding source
Mr. President, the Missão Party opposes it, first, because it is a proposal that lacks an impact estimate, which is a requirement for all proposals that are processed in this House; second, because it has no source of funding, and I think this is the most important point, because we would be benefiting one sector without knowing which sector we would be harming.
Why it was classified this way · 90% confidence states that the bill lacks an impact estimate and a source of revenue.
AgainstKim Kataguiri
411:20
About: approve projects without impact estimates and without a funding source
Thus, there is noncompliance with the Fiscal Responsibility Law, noncompliance with art. 103 of the ADCT and noncompliance with the Budget Guidelines Law itself.
Why it was classified this way · 90% confidence alleges the bill violates the LRF, ADCT and LDO.
AgainstKim Kataguiri
411:28
About: extend or create new tax benefits without impact assessment
I am a little alarmed that the Government's base is in favor, because the Government itself says it is against extending or creating new tax benefits without an impact assessment, without being rigorous about it.
Why it was classified this way · 80% confidence criticizes the governing base for contradicting declared fiscal policy.
AgainstKim Kataguiri
411:47
About: vote on bills without impact estimates
Yet the base is voting without an impact estimate, without a revenue source, and later appeals to President Hugo Motta to hold bombshell agendas when the Government itself does its work. So, Missão recommends "no."
Why it was classified this way · 85% confidence criticizes the base for voting without estimates and for using 'pauta‑bomba' tactics.
AgainstKim Kataguiri
433:55
About: equate procedural priority of racial crimes to that of homicide, rape, femicide and robbery-homicide
Mr. President, MISSÃO recommends "no," because, despite the positive aspects of the bill — maybe we can discuss that in the report — I do not find it reasonable to equate it in prioritization.
Why it was classified this way · 88% confidence advises 'não' because he/she disagrees with equating judicial priorities.
NeutralKim Kataguiri
434:08
About: maintain procedural priority for crimes such as femicide, rape, homicide and robbery-homicide
Today, the crimes that have priority in the Justice system are femicide, rape, homicide, robbery-homicide.
Why it was classified this way · 72% confidence lists which crimes have priority today without expressing an opinion.
AgainstKim Kataguiri
434:14
About: equate procedural priority of racial crimes to that of homicide, rape, femicide and robbery-homicide
Placing racial crimes in that same category...
Why it was classified this way · 90% confidence questions the inclusion of racial crimes in the same procedural category.
ForKim Kataguiri
434:18
About: apply harsher penalties for racial crimes
I have no doubt that racism is a very serious crime and that the person who commits it should be punished with severe penalties.
Why it was classified this way · 85% confidence states that racism is very serious and should be punished with harsh penalties.
AgainstKim Kataguiri
434:24
About: equate procedural priority of racial crimes to that of homicide, rape, femicide and robbery-homicide
Now, placing it in the Justice system — already clogged with cases, as we have today — with the same degree, the same quality, the same gravity as the serious crimes that are already prioritized?
Why it was classified this way · 88% confidence alleges a risk of overburdening the judiciary by equating priorities.
AgainstKim Kataguiri
434:36
About: create rigid budget earmarking by law to finance specific policies
Regarding the other point, the budgetary appropriation, Brazil also has many serious problems, and each municipality, each state and the Union itself need to understand which measures are most urgent to take, without us creating any kind of rigid budgetary linkage or prioritization enshrined in law. Our recommendation is "no."
Why it was classified this way · 90% confidence opposes budget prioritization being rigidly fixed by law.
ForKim Kataguiri
453:00
About: prevent statute of limitations on sentences for convicts who remain fugitives
Mr. President, regarding this bill, I think the law should already be like this.
Why it was classified this way · 90% confidence says the law should already prevent the statute of limitations from running for fugitives.
NeutralKim Kataguiri
453:15
About: prevent statute of limitations on sentences for convicts who remain fugitives
Today, in the case of a convict who escapes from prison — it has already been proven that he committed a crime, the sentence has already become final — if he remains at large for a sufficient amount of time, the crime prescribes, that is, the State loses the right to punish that criminal, because too much time has passed from the moment he committed that crime, from the moment the right to punish him was secured, until the moment of that punishment.
Why it was classified this way · 72% confidence explains how the statute of limitations works today and the resulting problem.
ForKim Kataguiri
453:42
About: prevent statute of limitations on sentences for convicts who remain fugitives
So, Mr. President, this is a reasonable bill. I even believe that we will achieve something very rare in this House, which is approval by unanimity, because it is reasonable.
Why it was classified this way · 90% confidence defends the bill and predicts unanimous approval.
ForKim Kataguiri
454:41
About: prevent statute of limitations on sentences for convicts who remain fugitives
Therefore, the victim herself and all those who were harmed by that crime have to live with the injustice of seeing a person who, having been proven to have committed a crime, escaped from prison and, by having escaped, is rewarded with the right not to be punished anymore.
Why it was classified this way · 90% confidence claims victims suffer injustice if the statute of limitations expires.
ForKim Kataguiri
454:53
About: prevent statute of limitations on sentences for convicts who remain fugitives
So, I ask for the vote to approve the urgency of this bill.
Why it was classified this way · 95% confidence asks for a vote to approve the bill's urgency.
NeutralKim Kataguiri
463:02
About: allow monetization of the Chamber TV channel on YouTube
If we allow TV Câmara to be monetized, I will only be able to watch TV Câmara without advertisements on YouTube, that is, without having to wait through a 15- or 30-second commercial, if I subscribe to YouTube Premium.
Why it was classified this way · 72% confidence explains practical effects of monetization and ads for viewers.
AgainstKim Kataguiri
463:16
About: allow monetization of the Chamber TV channel on YouTube
This kind of problem we can foresee for the future is that a citizen may want to have easy access to information that is being made public — for example, to watch a session of the Supreme Court — and an advertisement for a sneaker might appear.
Why it was classified this way · 80% confidence expresses concern about advertising appearing in public broadcasts.
AgainstKim Kataguiri
463:33
About: allow monetization of the Chamber TV channel on YouTube
I find it troubling. I confess that at first I thought, "This generates revenue for the State without any harm to the citizen," but when you analyze it calmly, it can indeed harm the quality of information in the long run. So, I will recommend "no," Mr. President.
Why it was classified this way · 90% confidence announces a 'não' recommendation after assessing harm to information.
AgainstKim Kataguiri
484:05
About: grant 14 days per year leave for workers to care for sick children
Mr. President, this is one of those bills with good intentions but with a harmful effect.
Why it was classified this way · 85% confidence says the bill has good intentions but harmful effects.
AgainstKim Kataguiri
484:11
About: grant 14 days per year leave for workers to care for sick children
It harms precisely the group it intends to benefit. From the moment you establish that, during 1 year, for 14 days, the worker has the right...
Why it was classified this way · 90% confidence explains the proposed rule (14 days) and criticizes its practical impact.
AgainstKim Kataguiri
484:21
About: grant 14 days per year leave for workers to care for sick children
Thus, it is obvious that this is reasonable, it is evident that everyone would like this to happen in practice, but let us understand the effect of public policy, which is generally very different from the intention.
Why it was classified this way · 85% confidence warns about unintended effects of the public policy versus its intent.
NeutralKim Kataguiri
484:32
About: grant 14 days per year leave for workers to care for sick children
It is established that, during 1 year, the worker may be absent for 14 days to take care of a 12-year-old child who is ill.
Why it was classified this way · 80% confidence literally describes the proposed rule on 14-day absences.
AgainstKim Kataguiri
484:41
About: grant 14 days per year leave for workers to care for sick children
What will happen is the perverse incentive created: people who have children under 12 will not be hired and therefore will be more harmed than benefited because, when doing the calculations, the entrepreneur who wants to balance his accounts, and as Deputy Adriana pointed out, in most cases is micro or small, will look for those who pose the smallest risks for labor costs.
Why it was classified this way · 90% confidence argues the measure encourages discrimination against people with children.
AgainstKim Kataguiri
485:03
About: grant 14 days per year leave for workers to care for sick children
So, we are harming precisely those who have these children. The recommendation is "no."
Why it was classified this way · 95% confidence closes by saying politics harms beneficiaries, advises 'não'.
