President Ferdinand “Bongbong” Marcos Jr. remains committed to having an anti-political dynasty measure passed during his term, Malacañang said. Palace Press Officer Claire Castro said the President’s position is to secure passage under his administration, even though the topic was not raised in his recent State of the Nation Address. The measure aims to limit or bar political relatives from holding public office in ways that promote dynastic control. According to the House status described by Inquirer.net, the House of Representatives approved the bill on third and final reading last June, specifically covering restrictions involving second-degree relatives and simultaneous public office-holding. The Senate counterpart of the bill is pending and has reached the second-reading stage. Both reports present the President’s intent and the ongoing legislative status as the central points, with no additional changes to the timeline or prospects reported beyond the Senate’s pending consideration. The Palace statement reiterates that passing the bill remains a priority during the current presidential term.
