Senator Randolfe Rodrigues has praised the Supreme Federal Court's (STF) recent decision to limit the use of constitutional amendments, describing it as a 'brake on untidiness'. The ruling, which was made in response to a series of amendments proposed by the government, has been welcomed by many who believe it will help to protect the integrity of the Brazilian constitution.

Rodrigues, who is a member of the opposition Rede Sustentabilidade party, said that the STF's decision was a 'victory for democracy'. He argued that the government had been attempting to use amendments to bypass the normal legislative process, and that the court's ruling had put a stop to this.

The STF's decision has been met with mixed reactions. The government has criticized the ruling, arguing that it will make it more difficult to pass important legislation. However, many legal experts have welcomed the decision, saying that it will help to ensure that the constitution is not undermined.
