Fernando Haddad outlines security and fiscal proposals for São Paulo

Fernando Haddad, the Workers' Party (PT) candidate for the governorship of São Paulo, has presented a platform focused on security, fiscal reform, and contract reviews. During recent interviews and campaigns, Haddad criticized the administration of incumbent Governor Tarcísio de Freitas, alleging a loss of command over public security and a decline in educational standards.

Haddad's security proposals include the creation of a specialized anti-faction agency that would integrate state and federal police, the Revenue Service, and the Public Prosecutor's Office to share intelligence. He also advocated for the continuous use of body cameras. Regarding organized crime, Haddad dismissed the United States' classification of groups like the PCC and Comando Vermelho as terrorist organizations as a 'minor issue,' arguing that the focus should remain on effective combat rather than nomenclature.

On the economic front, Haddad proposed a 20% reduction in public administration operating costs and intends to review several major contracts, including the Sabesp privatization, metropolitan train concessions, and the free-flow toll system. He also criticized the state's economic performance, noting a transition from a budget surplus to a deficit under the current administration.
