There may be three certainties in life: death, taxes, and Cayetano's inability to simply accept defeat.

Ang sesyon noong Hunyo 3, 2026 ay lehitimo at naaayon sa batas — IBP

Ang Avelino v. Cuenco ruling ay nagsasabi ng isang simpleng bagay: ang Konstitusyon ay hindi dapat gamitin para pigilan ang Senado sa paggawa ng tungkulin nito.

May dalawang senador na hindi makadalo sa mga gawain ng kapulungan sa kasalukuyan, kaya 22 na lamang ang maituturing na available na miyembro — at ang 12 sa kanila ay bumubuo ng mayorya.

Mahalagang tandaan na ang quorum ay batay sa bilang ng mga senador na maaaring lumahok. Sa kasong ito, malinaw na natugunan ang kinakailangang quorum.

𝗔𝗞𝗕𝗔𝗬𝗔𝗡 𝗪𝗘𝗟𝗖𝗢𝗠𝗘𝗦 𝗖𝗔𝗬𝗘𝗧𝗔𝗡𝗢 𝗢𝗨𝗦𝗧𝗘𝗥, 𝗧𝗛𝗘 𝗪𝗢𝗥𝗦𝗧 𝗦𝗘𝗡𝗔𝗧𝗘 𝗣𝗥𝗘𝗦𝗜𝗗𝗘𝗡𝗧 𝗜𝗡 𝗣𝗛 𝗛𝗜𝗦𝗧𝗢𝗥𝗬

Akbayan Party welcomes the ouster of Senator Alan Peter Cayetano as Senate President. We consign him to the dustbin of history as one of the shortest-serving, yet worst, Senate Presidents in the country’s history.

Despite his extremely short tenure, Cayetano presided over a descent into complete chaos that further eroded the Senate’s remaining credibility that will take years to undo.

We call on the new Senate leadership to restore order, integrity, and public trust without delay. This must begin with a full, transparent inquiry into the sequence of events that led to the recent turmoil, including the coddling of international fugitive and accused mass murderer Senator Bato dela Rosa and the May 13 Senate shooting incident, where his escape was enabled with the assistance of Senator Robin Padilla and others.

We also urge the Senate to also convene without delay the impeachment court and proceed with the trial of twice-impeached Vice President Sara Duterte, in line with its constitutional duty to uphold justice without fear or favor.

Lastly, we call on the public to remain vigilant against any renewed attempt to undermine, distort, or capture the Senate institution once more.

“We wish Acting Senate President Gatchalian every success as he leads the chamber in addressing the challenges and opportunities before our country,” he added.

They should have asked Alan if they agreed na bayaran ang media.

Because remember, he has direct experience. 😅

[The Philippine Star @PhilippineStar]

The Integrated Bar of the Philippines (IBP) declared on Thursday, June 4, 2026, that the quorum of 12 senators that reconstituted the Senate and elected Sen. Sherwin Gatchalian as president pro tempore and acting Senate president was “lawful and valid.” https://t.co/UB80y3BJis | via @onenewsph

'YOU ARE A DISGRACE TO THE SENATE'

Hinikayat ni 1st District Negros Occidental Rep. Jules Ledesma ang local government units sa kaniyang distrito na ideklarang persona non grata si Sen. Alan Peter Cayetano.

Kasunod ito ng mga pangyayari sa Senado sa ilalim ng liderato ni Cayetano.

Dati na ring namuno si Cayetano bilang House speaker.

"You've done this twice... trivializing your duty as a legislator," pahayag ng kongresista.

Kabilang sa 1st District ng Negros Occidental ang lungsod ng Escalante at San Carlos, at munisipalidad ng Calatrava, Don Salvador Benedicto, at Toboso.

‘RESIGN ALAN PETER CAYETANO’

Sa bukod na kilos-protesta sa labas ng Senado, nanawagan naman ang kabilang grupo kay Senator Alan Peter Cayetano na bumaba na sa pwesto bilang Senate President. Anila ito ang makatarungang desisyon para ibalik ang dignidad ng Senado. | via @AllisonCoABSCBN
