The officially refused the request of senators (-RJ) and Zequinha Marinho (Podemos-PA) to allow hiring by hours worked, presented by the opposition as a counterpoint to the PEC at the end of .
Dubbed by Bolsonarists as “PEC of Freedom”, the proposal was registered by the leader of the opposition in the Senate and coordinator of the pre-campaign of (PL-RJ) for the Presidency, Rogério Marinho (PL-RN), .
But parliamentarians admit that it has been the worst possible. Romário and Zequinha went public to state that they will support the end of the 6×1 scale and that they only signed Marinho’s PEC so that the debate would not be banned.
Senator Cleitinho (Republicanos-MG) also stated during last Tuesday’s plenary session (2) that he was being a victim of fake news, that he would never vote against workers’ rights and that he would stop signing Marinho’s PEC due to the misunderstanding.
The Senate rules only allow the withdrawal of signatures when the PEC has not yet been published — which is not the case. Offices that officially requested removal received a “refused” notice in response.
Marinho called the AGU (Attorney General of the Union) this Monday (8) asking for action against the minister (General Secretariat of the Presidency) and five parliamentarians on the allegation that they promote disinformation about the “PEC of Freedom”.
“In short, the aforementioned left-wing parliamentarians flooded their social networks using fake news to claim that PEC 16/2026 would create a supposed “7×0 scale”, end the CLT, extinguish the minimum wage and remove workers’ rights”, says an excerpt from the letter.
Also mentioned in the request sent to the AGU are federal deputies Rogério Correia (PT-MG), Alencar Santana (PT-SP), Érika Hilton (-SP) and Lindbergh Farias (PT-RJ), in addition to senator Fabiano Contarato (PT-SE).
