(File photo) MANILA - Senatorial candidate Harry Roque has urged barangay officials to join the UniTeam's call to "move forward as a nation and recover as one" from the impacts of the pandemic and the impending war in Eastern Europe. The former presidential spokesman stressed the barangay's role as government front-liners in the nation-building and national recovery thrusts of the Duterte administration. "We commend the barangay units for implementing government projects and programs such as the Covid-19 vaccination, health protocols, and quarantine regulations on the ground," Roque said. Roque said he would pursue measures to strengthen the barangay's mandate, specifically its fiscal autonomy, and uplift the workers' quality of life once he earns a Senate seat. A former member of the House of Representatives, Roque vowed to refile bills like the Magna Carta for Barangays, Barangay Workers Incentives Act, and Budget Reform Advocacy for Village Empowe
