Senator Randolfe Rodrigues, a vocal critic of the previous practice of using amendments to bypass spending limits, expressed his support for the ruling. He described it as a 'brake on the untidiness' that had characterized the amendment process in recent years.

The STF's decision clarifies that amendments cannot be used to circumvent spending limits established by law. This ruling is expected to have a significant impact on government spending, as it will prevent the executive branch from using amendments to bypass budgetary constraints.

Experts believe that the ruling will promote greater transparency and accountability in public spending. It will also help to ensure that the government's budget is aligned with its priorities and the needs of the population.
