The MP and PAN spokeswoman this Wednesday accused the government of “providing minimal services” and criticized what she called “health chaos” and the prime minister asked to be careful with the use of words.
“Healthcare chaos, with a social network still not betting on prevention, pregnant women at risk of not finding a functioning maternity hospital, and people with no access to mental health care, dental health, or even postponing IPOs from -for the lack of social media resources”, criticized Ines Sousa Real in her intervention in the first round of the debate on the state of the nation.

The prime minister responded that he never advocated investment in softwood, but “investment in industries that take advantage of the resin to return value to landowners” so that they are better cared for and that there is a “more sustainable forest”. .. fire.
