In an interview with Folha, Sérgio Reis (photo) has stated that the hiring of performances by artists from the countryside by Brazilian city councils “It’s public money, not public money”.
Reese, a former federal representative, has tried to differentiate this type of payment from the Rowan Act fundraising model — which Jair Bolsonaro supporters, like him, have criticized.
The city council needs to provide free time for city residents. So my friend, if there is a party, what is the problem with having artists at it? “asked the country singer, who said he had never resorted to the Rowan Code in his career.
“We won from city halls. With city council, it’s a contract of course. You have to give your company file, invoice, plain.”Reese said.
