He has also served as 2nd vice-president of the Constitution, Justice and Citizenship Committee (CCJC) and acts as rapporteur for proposals in the areas of digital law and energy transition. In legislative terms, according to House of Representatives data, he has already authored dozens of proposals; in 2025, for example, he has 172 authored proposals and 27 registered reports . Another highlight of his work has been in the energy sector: he was the rapporteur for the draft of the Brazilian Electricity Code and has sought to strengthen distributed generation policies, presenting amendments and proposals in the electricity sector.
