The political landscape in Brazil is shifting as notable figures voice critical reactions to the newly approved 'Blindagem' PEC (Proposed Constitutional Amendment) by the Chamber of Deputies. According to reports, the President of the Constitution, Justice, and Citizenship Commission (CCJ) has openly criticized the measure, emphasizing concerns regarding its implications for legislative transparency and accountability.
Key voices in the opposition argue that the 'Blindagem' PEC undermines the democratic processes by shielding certain actions from scrutiny. They contend that this amendment could signify a step back for Brazil's political system, fostering an environment of reduced oversight. The President of the CCJ remarked, "This type of legislative maneuvering is a disservice to the very principles of our democracy that we must uphold."
