3 former Senate Presidents, one commitment: help the Senate move forward and serve the country.

Honored to sit beside SPPT Tito Sotto and Sen. Chiz Escudero in the plenary. Magkakaiba man ang naging panahon ng aming pamumuno, iisa ang tungkulin namin sa bayan. #SenadoPH

SENATE BACK TO WORK FOR THE FILIPINO PEOPLE

We express our deep appreciation and commend the courageous decision of Senator Francis “Chiz” Escudero to take the floor today and confront the issues facing the institution. His action sent a clear message: that his commitment to the country, to the Senate, and to the Constitution would prevail above all else.

His presence enabled the Senate to proceed with the discussion of matters that are too important to be left unresolved and too consequential to be set aside.

On the issue of quorum, this is not an uncharted matter. The Supreme Court, in Avelino v. Cuenco, recognized the principle that a quorum of 12 is determined based on the number of members who are legally able to discharge the functions of the Senate.

There is likewise an institutional precedent. In 2015, the Senate recognized a quorum of 12 senators who were within its jurisdiction. The Senate continued to perform its constitutional duties because the work of government could not be placed on hold.

At a time when the nation faces pressing challenges, the Filipino people expect their Senate to work, deliberate, and fulfill its constitutional mandate. The institution cannot remain stalled by disagreements or uncertainty. Our duty is clear: to legislate, provide oversight, and serve the public interest.

The Filipino people deserve a Senate that shows up, does its job, and places public service above politics.

It is time for the Senate to move forward and get back to work for the Filipino people.

WALA PA RING MAJORITY

The Senate plenary session, which was supposed to start at 5 p.m., has yet to begin as only members of the minority bloc are present.

The majority bloc has not yet taken its seats in the chamber as of 5:40 p.m., amid developments involving Sen. Jinggoy Estrada’s arrest and Sen. Ronald “Bato” dela Rosa’s continued absence from public view.

The delay has fueled questions on social media on whether the session will proceed today.
