Senate to emphasize administration agenda in favor of Filipinos

MANILA – Senate Majority Leader Juan Miguel Zubiri said he will spearhead the establishment of a majority caucus in the 24-member Senate to help President-elect Ferdinand “Bongbong” Marcos Jr. achieve his legislative agenda.

Even as other senators vowed to remain independent amid an imminent “supermajority” in the 19th Congress, Zubiri said on Tuesday that they are looking forward to working effectively with the next administration for the sake of the people.

“We, the working majority, will decide and elect the officials and leadership in due time, as is customary.” In a statement, Zubiri stated, “This will be done in a democratic manner, based on qualifications and ideals that will respect the Senate’s traditions as an institution.”

Senator Sonny Angara stated that they are members of different political parties, each with its own set of ideas, ideologies, and causes.

“In terms of work ethic, leadership, and production, I believe the 18th Congress serves as an excellent model for the next 19th Congress.” Long and arduous debates ensued, but considerable legislation was approved to aid our countrymen during a difficult period in our history. “With enlarged and unprecedented aid initiatives, the Senate assisted the President and his administration in helping our compatriots in their hour of need,” Angara said in a statement.

Senator Christopher “Bong” Go stated that he will always accept the majority’s decision and will continue to fight “quietly” for the Filipino people’s interests.

In an interview, he joked, “Pwede po sigurong tabihan ko si (I can stay near to) [Senator] Lito Lapid.”

Go stated that speaking up when something is wrong or supporting the government when it is doing the right thing are both valid options.

“Ang makikinabang dito ang mga Pilipino,” says the speaker.

Ma-i-ahon lang po natin yung mga mahihirap. (The Filipinos are the ones who should always profit.) Let us assist the unfortunate. Let us just assist one another),” he remarked.
