A recent statement from the Malacañang confirmed President Ferdinand R. Marcos, Jr.'s unwavering commitment to supporting the passage of an anti-political dynasty law during his administration.
Presidential Press Secretary Clarissa A. Castro addressed concerns raised by some critics about the omission of the anti-dynasty proposal from the recent State of the Nation Address (SONA). She assured that President Marcos' stance on the issue remains unchanged.
The House of Representatives has already approved House Bill No. 8389, officially known as the Anti-Political Dynasty Act, on the third and final reading on June 3rd.
The bill, which is part of the Legislative-Executive Development Advisory Council's list of priority bills, seeks to implement the Constitution's provision prohibiting political dynasties.
The 1987 Constitution instructs the government to prohibit political dynasties by law. However, Congress has yet to establish an implementing measure.
The aim of the proposed Anti-Political Dynasty Act is to prevent relatives of elected officials from holding more than one local position simultaneously or owning a seat in the same locality.
Critics argue that the House version of the law is not broad enough as it allows kin to hold positions in distinct regions.
Presidential spokesperson Castro clarified that the President's stance on the proposal has not altered despite its absence from the SONA.
