One more time Threats of even loss of investiture fell on opponents on the part of the Chartists, on this occasion for exposing them in their intention to continue maintaining the same scheme that allowed them to put lawyers with alleged false title to JEM, as was the case of the former Chartist senator Hernan David Rivas and the former Chartist deputy Orlando Arevalo (ANR, currently Fuerza Republicana).
Honor Colorado through the deputy Cesar Cerini (ANR, HC) and seconded by the leader of the Chartist bench, Miguel Del Puerto, tried to postpone the treatment of this case for 15 days again project that has been delayed for a year.
Seeing clearly that the postponement was a crude excuse for not dealing with the project, since it had opinions and there was not even controversy, one of the planners, the deputy Rocio Vallejo (Partido Patria Querida) flatly rejected the postponement.
“Enough of opposing without foundations. What is the problem in establishing more requirements to be a member of the JEM, or do we want more rivals in the JEM? What is the problem or is it because I propose or because they want some bandits to continue in the JEM?Vallejo harshly questioned.
She stressed that she even gave in on commissions with the only aspect in controversy and continues to “screw.”
“I’m not going to reach any intermediate point, because this is a lack of respect at this point in the championship. After everything they approved of Rivas and kept him until the end, they continue to prevent transparency in the JEM. Titles are just what we want. How many more fake titles are there in this chamber? Enough, president“, criticized Vallejo, who flatly refused a new postponement.
The deputy Roberto Gonzalez (ANR, Añeteté) joined in supporting the project, mentioning that the only thing it proposes is that “he who wants to be a representative of the Chamber of Deputies at least shows us that he is a lawyer.”
“Don’t you generates shame that someone from this Chamber has gone to present us before the JEM and become president (having a false title)? “He lashed out at his Chartist colleagues, who they did not give up with the postponementbut they even proposed kicking for a month (30 days).
The project in question I just posed that, in addition to law degreewhoever is a candidate for member of the JEM representing some of the Chambers of Congress, can demonstrate at least 10 years of practice prior to the profession, whether as a teacher, judge, prosecutor or as a private lawyer.
Opponents offer their heads in the face of a new threat
Another who joined in to highlight that the postponement proposal was a crude attempt not to discuss the topic It was the deputy Raúl Benítez (Independent), who had already been targeted by Chartism for being critical of the government.
Last week they threatened to suspend him, now directly to propose his loss of office.
“What this shows is that for you Hernán Rivas is not an accident, Hernan Rivas It is from your rib… from Honor Colorado’s rib. The essence of Honor Colorado is represented by a scam guy without a title who held a position as a salamero“, Benítez lashed out.
This motivated the reaction of the Honor Colorado caucus leader who was at the microphone, he would have told him: “Since we do not have the votes to suspend him, we are going to fire him.”
This is because, paradoxically, to suspend a colleague, an absolute majority of two-thirds (53 votes) is required, while to dismiss him or her, a simple majority of those present is required (half plus 1).
“If you have the pants to shout that, I ask you to have the pants to write“, responded Benítez, who stressed that Chartism “has every right and has the Court (Supreme of Justice) to endorse”, referring to the case Kattya Gonzalez, where the Judiciary was complicit with the Senate.
Also another weekly victim of Chartist threats, the deputy Johanna Ortega (Solidarity Country Party) joined in offering a seat if Chartism so badly wants to silence critics
“We have the same immunity that you have and it is not appropriate for us to receive threats every time we speak; The colleague has just received a threat of expulsion. I ask you to do it,” Ortega challenged.
“Even, She offered to write the accusatory libel herself. “If you want the text of my suspension or that of Raul Benitez “I have the text of expulsion or suspension prepared: for telling the truth, for making them uncomfortable, for not wanting to be our friends in our political positions or even for telling them in their ear what they don’t want to hear,” said Ortega, fed up.
It was finally put to a vote and the 30-day postponement won. In the first vote there was controversy, since they tied 30 votes eachbut in a second vote, the Chartists ended up winning by 32 votes to 29.
