He was elected in 2022 Brazilian general elections to represent the state of Paraná in the Chamber of Deputies. His term of federal deputy was revoked on 16 May 2023 by the Superior Electoral Court of Brazil in a unanimous decision. On 6 June 2023, the Bureau of the Chamber of Deputies of Brazil confirmed the decision of the Superior Electoral Court that revoked his term, a decision based on the grounds that Dallagnol committed a fraud against the Ficha Limpa (Clean Record) act. Dallagnol moved to Chicago in 2023 and on the plane he began receiving donations to pay the hundreds of fines for his criminal convictions.
