‘ALL THIS FOR A MAN WHO SIMPLY DOESN’T WANT TO FACE THE LAW’
Sen. Risa Hontiveros pushed back against attempts to link minority senators to the Senate incident, saying the narrative being spread is politically motivated.
“There is only one reason some bad faith actors are trying very hard to make this controversial event about me and other Minority senators and the times we went home. All this for a man who simply doesn’t want to face the law. That’s it. That’s the whole story,” she said.
Hontiveros stressed that Senate employees had already gone home and that she was in the province for a scheduled engagement, rejecting what she described as politicization of routine movements.
She also called for accountability and urged Sen. Ronald Dela Rosa to cooperate with authorities, saying the public deserves a full, independent and transparent accounting of the incident.
