A call for calm and for media access at the Senate

We urge Senate leadership to allow colleagues access to and egress from the chamber as they perform their duties.

We also urge parties in the developing situation to resolve this issue without putting our colleagues and others who are not involved at risk.

A call for calm and for media access at the Senate

The National Union of Journalists of the Philippines expresses concern over the lockdown at the Senate implemented this afternoon.

According to information received from within the upper house, media workers inside the complex are not allowed to go out and those outside cannot enter.

The measures, reportedly prompted by a National Bureau of Investigation attempt to arrest Sen. Ronald "Bato" Dela Rosa, have included barbed wire at the gate and the rolling down of roller doors at the main entrance.

Media deployed to the Senate are assigned to cover matters of national interest, including developments on Dela Rosa's situation.

We urge Senate leadership to allow colleagues access to and egress from the chamber as they perform their duties.

We also urge parties in the developing situation to resolve this issue without putting our colleagues and others who are not involved at risk.

IMPEACHED na si Sara Duterte sa House of Representatives.

255 sa 316 na mga mambabatas ang sumang-ayon sa pagkaka-impeach ni Duterte. 26 sa kanila ang hindi pabor dito, samantalang 9 ang nag-abstain.

Una nang na-impeach si Duterte sa HoR, Pebrero noong nakaraang taon.

Si Duterte ang kauna-unahang bise presidenteng impeached sa House of Representatives. Ang susunod na hakbang ay ang pag-akyat ng impeachment sa Senado, na siyang may tungkuling magpulong agad bilang impeachment court sa oras na matanggap ang mga Articles of Impeachment.

Ano nga ba ang impeachment? Basahin dito: https://www.instagram.com/p/DFsh5u4ztcm/?img_index=5&igsh=MXQ5bTNqcml0YnZyaQ==
