Brasilia, 27 (Agência Brasil - ABr) - The anti-crime and public security measures being considered by Congress' joint committee will be a priority for Senator Jose Serra (of the PSDB party of São Paulo), who returned Tuesday to Congress after resigning from the post of Minister of Health, which he occupied for 4 years.
