“Every public official has the prerogative to decide on their attendance at significant events. However, the State of the Nation Address (SONA) is a crucial moment for unity and collaboration among our nation’s leaders. It is a time to reflect on our progress, address challenges, and outline our vision for the future.”
Giit pa ni Romualdez,ang mamamayan ay may karapatan ding makita ang kani-kanilang lider sa panahong nag-uulat ang Pangulo para sa bansa.
Magkagayunman, sinabi pa ng liderato ng Kamara na tuloy ang paghahanda ng Kongreso sa SONA.
“Our constituents deserve to see their leaders united and focused on the collective good. Despite the Vice President’s absence, the House of Representatives remains committed to working with all branches of government to ensure that President Ferdinand “Bongbong” R. Marcos Jr.’s SONA reflects our collective efforts to improve the lives of Filipinos. Unity and collaboration will continue to guide us forward,” ani Romualdez.
