Lula fez e vai fazer muito mais por Minas Gerais! ⭐

How many rest areas were there for drivers when we took over the government? None, Mr. President. None. And we are solving this historical problem here in Minas Gerais. There is a place to take a shower. There is a place for female truck drivers to shower, with an emergency button for their safety. We found out how many billions were invested in concessions, and how much have we done today? The federal government has 12 concessions in Minas Gerais, and today we already have contracts worth 280 billion. This is important for us to be able to bring projects to fruition. The situation here, Mr. President, is like this: The bridge alone costs 80 million, but the entire project here in Governador Ladares, which is the urban passage, we're talking about an investment of more than millions of reais. It's time for us to show who's doing what and who's not, who's telling the truth and who's lying. I would like you to research whether, at any point in the history of this country's presidencies, any president has allocated the amount of resources to repairing roads, building highways, and restoring railways that we are allocating. And may the governors make this bridge, the bridge of all, so that everyone can cross this bridge happily.
