The Senate approved, in the second round, the PEC that foresees the end of the 6x1 scale by 75 votes in favor and one against, repeating the result of the first round.

Senator Ciro Nogueira (PP-PI), who did not participate in the vote in the first round, registered his presence in the plenary and has already voted for the PEC in the second round.

When celebrating the approval in the first round alongside senator Camilo Santana (PT-CE), the president of the Senate, Davi Alcolumbre (União-AP), commented: “I didn't say it would work”.

Senator Hamilton Mourão (Republicanos-RS) was the only one to vote against the PEC in the first round.

The Senate approved, in the 1st round, the PEC that foresees the end of the 6x1 scale by 75 votes in favor.

As of 9:43 pm, 74 senators had already voted on the PEC that provides for the end of the 6x1 scale.

The first ten senators to vote were in favor of the PEC, which foresees the end of the 6x1 scale.

The Senate rejected amendment 37 to the PEC at the end of the 6x1 scale. Presented by the PSDB, the text provided that professions with weekly working hours of less than 40 hours already established by law would not have an additional reduction in working hours with the proposed changes.

The president of the Senate, Davi Alcolumbre (União-AP), closed the discussion in the first round and informed that a request had been presented to the Board to establish a special voting calendar. The request was submitted to the plenary and approved, allowing the proposal to be voted on in the first and second rounds in the same session.

Senator Camilo Santana (PT-CE) begins to speak in the plenary. He is the last parliamentarian registered to speak before the PEC vote at the end of the 6x1 scale.
