There was strong opposition to the idea. A senior PiS member insisted that Monika Pawłowska cannot be admitted to the PiS club, arguing that she is taking part in an illegal procedure. He warned the move would be used in dirty politics and aimed at attacking the club from the inside. He added that, from a political standpoint, the decision would not be accepted by the party.
During today’s Sejm session, Pawłowska confirmed she plans to accept a parliamentary mandate, though she did not intend to take the oath at the upcoming plenary session. She spoke about feeling aligned with PiS and expressed a desire to join the club after taking the oath. One PiS member, in a conversation with a political portal, said this scenario is hard to picture in reality.
The PiS camp maintains that the mandates of Mariusz Kamiński and Maciej Wąsik remain valid. They argue those lawmakers still have roles to fulfill and immunities to rely on. The group characterized Marshal Hołownia’s actions as lacking legal grounding in light of the Supreme Court’s ruling and the Chamber of Extraordinary Control. They asserted that the move to initiate a mandate-acceptance procedure was unfounded and that Hołownia was exceeding his authority. They warned that consequences would follow sooner or later.
— The clear position from the party was that Pawłowska should be aware of the potential consequences of her choices.
The subject of Pawłowska’s status remains unresolved. Her current role and mandate could be questioned in the future. The assessment noted that the line of action depends on the Sejm Speaker’s insistence on legal formalities, yet the party’s leadership has its own stance on Kamiński’s parliamentary status. The interpretation offered is that Pawłowska should proceed with caution and avoid accepting the mandate, though the decision rests with her personally.
— A political interview highlighted this perspective.

“It’s such a game”
At present, PiS has not issued an official position on Pawłowska’s case. The party plans to decide on the matter in due course.
The PiS club intends to evaluate the next steps once Pawłowska takes the oath and becomes the 461st member of the Sejm.
— A party representative noted he cannot envision Pawłowska joining the PiS club.
The situation is described as a political maneuver. It appears she is acting against the will of PiS leadership and the club’s official line, pursuing a mandate that has not been released while portraying herself as acting in good faith and open to joining the PiS club.
— The question remains whether Pawłowska will be offered a position within the party.
There will be no permission for this. Decisions will of course be made after Monika Pawłowska actually takes over as MP, a statement that left little doubt about PiS’s stance.
Pawłowska as a potential instrument
If Pawłowska is not admitted to the PiS club, she plans to remain an unaffiliated MP.
The discussion is framed as a straightforward calculation: on October 15, a seat in parliament was not won, and now an opportunity has presented itself. The motive appears to be to secure a position as an MP while weighing the political and legal consequences, even if the move contradicts the party line.
— A senior PiS member stressed there is little hope that Pawłowska is being used by other factions to disrupt Kamiński and Wąsik and to divide the PiS club.
The view is that the situation could be leveraged to weaken PiS cohesion. Observers expect possible actions against current PiS parliamentarians in coming months. Critics label the approach as dirty politics and say final decisions will come after more information is available. From a political perspective, the decision is not endorsed.
— The party representative summarized.
