Malacañang wala pang opisyal na komunikasyon sa pagpapatawag ng special session
Kamara
WALA pang ipinadadalang official communication ang Malacañang sa Kongreso para sa pagpapatawag ng special session upang ipasa ang Bayanihan to Recover as One bill (Bayanihan II).
Ayon kay House Majority Leader at Leyte Rep. Martin Romualdez handa ang Kamara de Representantes na magsagawa ng special session upang matulungan ang Duterte government sa pagsisimula ng ekonomiya kasabay ng paglaban sa pandemya.
“We are still awaiting the official communication from the Palace. The House leadership under Speaker Alan Peter Cayetano is committed to approve the Bayanihan to Recover as One bill or the Bayanihan II to help President Rodrigo Duterte kickstart our economy and strengthen government’s fight against the spread of COVID-19,” ani Romualdez.
Nauna ng sinabi ni Presidential spokesman Harry Roque na inaasahan ang pagpapatawag ng special session kapag natapos na ang pag-uusap ng Department of Finance at Kongreso kaugnay ng panukala.
“We have to support the President to ensure the country and Filipinos’ survival from this pandemic. The members of the House Majority are in full agreement that we all have to work for the passage of the Bayanihan II. We will get the job done.”
Suportado rin ni House committee on ways and means at Albay Rep. Joey Salceda ang pagpapatawag ng special session.
“This is a request we have made strongly to the President over the past weeks, and we are prepared to work during the special session to get a viable compromise passed,” ani Salceda.
“Time is of the essence in this matter, and we can confidently assure the people that the House is ready to get this done quickly,” dagdag pa ni Salceda.
