House Majority Leader Sandro Marcos congratulates newly elected Senate President Sherwin Gatchalian, describing him as “level-headed” and saying his leadership would help the Senate move forward. In statements reported on Wednesday, Marcos said the election enables the upper chamber to move past weeks of internal tensions that disrupted its work. He frames Gatchalian’s selection as an opportunity for the Senate to refocus on pending legislative and oversight tasks, rather than continuing leadership disputes. Marcos also said he looks forward to working with Gatchalian on behalf of the House, signaling continued coordination between the two chambers. The remarks reflect a generally supportive response from the House leadership to the Senate’s new top post, with emphasis on stability and resuming work in the legislature. Both sources attribute the same core points to Marcos: congratulations to Gatchalian, praise for his temperament, and the view that the Senate can resume momentum after its recent internal disagreements.
