Salceda: House to resume deliberations on economic Cha-cha

Albay 2nd District Representative Joey Salceda (Office of Rep. Salceda/File photo) Salceda, House ways and means committee chairman and a principal sponsor of the proposed Resolution of Both Houses (RBH) No. 2 which would amend economic restrictions of the 1987 Constitution, also renewed calls for the Senate to pass its own counterpart measure. “The House will do its part. That is for certain. But we hope the Senate begins deliberating soon. The timing is efficient, since we could have the plebiscite along with the 2022 elections,” Salceda said. Salceda also reassured that the House has no intent of introducing political provisions to the proposed revisions.

Salceda: Lockdown extensions sans healthcare expansion will strangle PH economy

(Cong. Joey Salceda’s office / FILE PHOTO / MANILA BULLETIN) ‘’So, if we will extend the lockdown for another round, we should make the extension worth the pain,’’ Salceda, chairman of the House ways and means committee, said. His statement comes as the Inter-Agency Task Force (IATF) on the Management of Emerging Infectious Diseases announced that it has recommended another week of the enhanced community quarantine (ECQ) starting April 5. Salceda, however, said extensions only work with expanded health care capacity and testing. ‘’The very premise of extensions is that they are time bought to prepare a stronger healthcare response. If there will be no changes in our ICU (intensive care unit) capacity, we will merely be deferring new surges of infection for later,’’ he explained.
