PP Congressman Acknowledges Mistake in Supporting the Shield PEC, Apologizes Publicly, and Guarantees Articulation in the Senate to Change the Text.
Congressman Acknowledges Mistake and Apologizes Publicly
The PP congressman surprised many by acknowledging that he voted incorrectly on the so-called Shield PEC, a proposal that has generated strong controversy in the National Congress.
Emphatically, he stated that the Shield PEC, passed amid criticism from legal experts and pressure from civil society, was rushed and contained points that were not properly analyzed.
The congressman asserted that, in supporting the Shield PEC, he did not immediately recognize the institutional risks it could pose. According to him, the measure may have turned out to be “more lethal than the very ailment it aimed to address,” in reference to the side effects of the approved text.

“I understand that it is impossible to please everyone in the National Congress. But, in this case, it is necessary to recognize that the Chamber made a mistake, and the remedy may have turned out to be more lethal than the ailment it aimed to address.”
Shortly After the Vote on the Shield PEC, the PP Congressman Began Receiving Calls from Experts. These Direct and Technical Conversations Made Him Rethink His Position.
In light of social and political pressure, the congressman stated that he paid closer attention to the consequences of the Shield PEC and realized that he had supported a misguided measure.
He acknowledged that the proposal could cause more problems than solutions. Therefore, he declared that he intends to work in the Senate to correct the most criticized points of the Shield PEC.
Thus, the congressman’s retreat shows that the negative repercussions of the Shield PEC are already starting to produce effects within Congress itself.
Taking Responsibility for the Mistake
With a straightforward and direct speech, the congressman admitted his failure:
“I acknowledge that I failed, I apologize, and I will work to correct it.”
This statement highlights a rare stance in Brasília: the willingness to backtrack and publicly acknowledge a mistake.
Commitment to Action in the Senate
In addition to apologizing, the congressman assured that he will not remain idle. He stated that he has already begun discussions with colleagues to prevent the text from advancing in the Federal Senate.
According to him, the priority now is to correct the error and prevent the measure from further harming society.
A Gesture That Can Change the Debate
Although the retraction does not reverse the immediate outcome of the vote, the congressman’s words open the floor for new debates within Congress.
After all, when a congressman acknowledges a mistake and commits to correcting it, public pressure gains strength.
