In a press statement, Cayetano said House Bill 8628 or the proposed Bayanihan to Arise as One Act (Bayanihan 3) authored by Velasco “might not be approved in time to help those who need it the most.”
Cayetano also took a jab at Velasco’s bid to prioritize Charter change moves which the Lower House Committee on Constitutional Amendments did when it adopted last week Resolution of Both Houses 02.
“This is precisely why we asked that we focus on what is important, #AyudaHindiChacha, so that we can give the best solutions to the problems facing the nation without any distractions,” he said.
