Speaker Martin G. Romualdez on Sunday commended his peers in the House of Representatives following the “very good” net satisfaction rating the chamber received in the December 10-14 survey of the Social Weather Stations (SWS).
“This is a testament to the hard work and dedication of our legislators in serving the Filipino people during these challenging times. As the leader of the House of Representatives, I am proud of our members and their commitment to advancing pro-people legislative measures,” Romualdez said.
“As House leader, I am deeply honored, humbled, and grateful to theFilipino people for their trust and confidence in the House of Representatives,” he added.
Romualdez also thanked the Members of the House for their “solid support and cooperation” that enabled him to steer the chamber in advancing measures that address the needs of the people.
“With all humility, thank you for the continued trust and confidence in me,” Romualdez said.
The House, along with the Senate, the Supreme Court, and the Cabinet of President Ferdinand “Bongbong” Marcos, Jr. all scored a “very good” net satisfaction rating in the survey. It scored a +56 rating, next to the Senate with +68, while the SC and the Cabinet scored +53 and +50 respectively.
Romualdez said the SWS survey results were “very encouraging” and would serve as an inspiration for him and the House Members to work even harder.
“We will continue to work tirelessly to help realize the 8-point socioeconomic agenda of President Marcos and deliver on our mandate to provide meaningful and responsive solutions meant to uplift the lives of the Filipino people,” Romualdez said.
When the House adjourned for its Holy Week break last March 23, the Speaker reported the House had approved on third and final reading 23 of 31 bills identified by the Legislative-Executive Development Advisory Council (LEDAC) as priority measures of the Marcos administration, with the remaining eight measures already in advanced states of deliberation.
During the six-week congressional break from March 23 to May 7, Speaker Romualdez authorized House committees to continue working to process pending measures.
