JOINT STATEMENT ON THE SENATE MINORITY WALKOUT
We strongly condemn what appears to be an attempt to rush a major change in the Senate Rules, especially when several members of the minority still wanted to speak and raise serious questions on the floor.
Bakit kailangang madaliin? Bakit kailangang pigilan ang mga gustong magsalita? Bakit kailangang i-divide ang house kung marami pang senador ang nagtatanong tungkol sa proseso?
Minamadali ba ang rule change na ito dahil gusto nilang maka boto si Senator Bato? At ngayong may mga ulat na may mga majority senators na maaaring arestuhin?
We walked out because what happened on the floor looked less like orderly deliberation. The proposed rule change affects how senators may attend sessions, participate in proceedings and exercise their mandate through remote means, and such a measure should be opened to healthy public debate instead of being rushed by the tyranny of the majority.
We have always welcomed healthy discussions on the floor, but this should mean allowing all members to be heard, not forcing the chamber to move at the speed preferred by the majority.
At the time the motion was taken up, there was no duly constituted Committee on Rules and there was not even an elected Majority Leader who could properly guide a rules amendment through the regular process.
How could there have been any action or discussion before the Committee on Rules when no Committee on Rules has been organized to date?
With due respect, the answer that no Senate rule had been violated does not settle the matter, because the rules cannot be treated as a matter of convenience when the very process for amending them is under serious question.
The timing raises a question that the public deserves to hear debated openly. Kaya pinili naming tumayo at iwan ang majority sa plenary. Kaya kami nagdesisyon to question the quorum and call for adjournment.
If the proposal is truly defensible, then let it pass through the proper route.
We owe it to the people who voted for us to do our mandate. This is why we want more time to discuss this further.
Mas interesting at surprising for me ang pagkapanalo ni Kiko: trolled, spliced videos, no INC endorsement yet managed to pull an upset win at rank 5!!!! Ibig sabihin hindi masyado umpekto ang trolls at splice videos. Ibig sabihin one can win without pandering to the cult π€·ββοΈ
Ang tunay na kapangyarihan:
Ginamit ang boto laban sa nanggagamit lang sa bumuboto. πͺπ» Inihalal sa pwesto ang naninilbihan ng tunay at totoo. οΏ½οΏ½οΈ
Sigaw ng botante, lalu na ang Gen-Z, βChoice ko ang Boss ko!β
Sa grasya ng Diyos, at pakikibaka ng tao, may pagasa ang Pilipinas. ππΌ
