Sen. Bam Aquino files Senate Bill No. 2386, known as the National Disability Support Act, proposing a monthly P2,000 allowance for eligible persons with disabilities (PWDs). The measure aims to help cover everyday expenses and support greater independence for qualified beneficiaries.
Aquino says the allowance would be delivered through a National Disability Support Allowance Program. She also indicates that the amount may be adjusted periodically in line with inflation to help preserve its real value over time. Across the reports, the focus remains on the proposed benefit amount, the bill’s purpose, and the mechanism for program delivery and inflation-based adjustments.
