Romualdez lauded his fellow lawmakers for their achievements, particularly the passage of 20 Legislative Executive Development Advisory Council (LEDAC) priority measures three months ahead of the deadline, as well as the 2024 General Appropriations Bill (GAB). He also stood his ground and remained steadfast to his commitment in defending the integrity of the institution.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
\u201cLet not our hard work be undermined by a dissatisfied few whose only intention is to sow divisiveness. Instead, let our outputs speak for our loyalty to our country, the constitution, and the entire Filipino people,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
The Speaker then asked all parties to prioritize the enactment of laws that will address the needs of Filipinos.<\/p>\n

“Let us focus on the tasks at hand. When our goals are aligned, we could be an excellent force, propelling our country into unbridled progress. Let us ensure that our actions will promote development in all spheres of both the government and society,” he urged.<\/p>\n

Gonzales pushed for the adoption of HR 1414 \u201cto manifest to Speaker Romualdez that the lawmakers stand firmly behind him, preserving the honor and integrity of the House and pledge their allegiance and unity.\u201d<\/p>\n

Majority Leader Manuel Jose \u201cMannix\u201d Dalipe sponsored the measure at the floor, saying that if House members continue to work together, they could be more effective in alleviating poverty, building a stronger future, and legislating policies that address the country\u2019s most pressing issues.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
\u201cWhile we recognize that legitimate criticisms are but part of the organs of democracy, we are unfazed. We continue to improve the delivery of our consitutionally-mandated obligation to serve the people through legislation,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n
