In August 1984, Neira was appointed Minister of Industry, a position he held for 33 months, when a scandal involving the Ecuahospital ended the government.[1] In the aftermath, Neira moved to Miami, Florida, to avoid an arrest warrant.[1] He lived in the United States for three years until he was acquitted of all corruption charges by the Supreme Court of Ecuador.[1]
Neira joined the Social Christian Party (PSC) in 1993 and returned to politics.[1] He was elected to the National Congress in 1994 and re-elected in 1998, ultimately serving in Congress from 1994 until 2002.[1]
