The federal deputy and candidate for re-election Aliel Machado (PV-PR) presented a balance sheet of his parliamentary performance and claims to have articulated almost half a billion reais in investments for Ponta Grossa in the last four years. According to the data released by the campaign, the resources involve projects in the areas of health, infrastructure, education, housing, agriculture, public security and sport.

Among the main initiatives cited by the parliamentarian are the new tower of Hospital Universitário Regional dos Campos Gerais (HU-UEPG), the Radiotherapy Center of Santa Casa, the future Polyclinic, the Center Specialized in Rehabilitation (CER-4), paving works and investments in educational institutions.

According to Aliel, the action seeks to approximate resources of the federal and state governments to the demands presented by the municipality and by institutions of Ponta Grossa.

“Politics only makes sense when it changes people’s lives. It does not matter if it is a great work or a resource that guarantees the functioning of an institution. What matters is the outcome and the impact that this investment will have on people’s lives,” he said.

Healthcare concentrates some of the biggest investments

One of the main projects highlighted in the balance sheet is the construction of the new tower of the Hospital Universitário of the State University of Ponta Grossa (UEPG).

According to the data presented by the deputy, the investment reaches R$ 108 million. The new structure will have more than 15,000 square meters and should expand the capacity of hospital care in the city. The completion is expected by 2028.

Another project mentioned is the so-called “Hospital do Câncer”, the name used for the Radiotherapy Center of Santa Casa de Ponta Grossa. The venture totals more than R$ 20 million, in a partnership involving Itaipu Binacional and the Ministry of Health.

The space received a linear accelerator for the treatment of cancer patients.

Among the projects highlighted by the parliamentary, the first Polyclinic of Ponta Grossa, with an announced investment of approximately R$ 30 million, and the Center Specialized in Rehabilitation (CER-4), which receives about R$ 10 million.

Aliel seeks new mandate in the House

Aliel Machado is vying for re-election as a federal deputy in the 2026 election. He currently holds a term in the Chamber of Deputies, where he is the leader of the Partido Verde and deputy leader of the Federal Government.

In the balance sheet presented during the campaign, the parliamentarian also highlights his work on national issues, citing the defense of the extension of the income tax exemption, the National Nursing Floor and positions in votes held in the Chamber.

“More than presenting numbers, we want to show where the mandate work is coming from. These are hospitals, schools, homes, streets, equipment, institutions and projects that are part of the life of Ponta Grossa,” he said.

The values and projects presented in this matter are part of the balance sheet released by the campaign of Aliel Machado on the performance of the parliamentary in the current term.
