  8. Result • The Senator Flávio Arns invited us for a meeting in his office obvioulsy trying to persuade us to support his bill. • After the political scenery created by the first public hearing on Senate, he offered a proposal of agreement in which he retrieved a few points compared to the initial one. • It was late, there was a consensus against his bill and the deputies decided to create a new project in partnership with the Alliance to solve the semantic problem.
