Bishop urges Congress to revisit RH law

A Catholic bishop on March 25, 2026 urges Congress to revisit the Reproductive Health (RH) law, claiming it will pave the way for abortion. In a press conference led by the Catholic Bishops’ Conference of the Philippines and the Guadalupe Pilgrimage Committee in Manila ahead of the scheduled visit of the image of Our Lady of Guadalupe, Kidapawan Bishop Jose Colin Bagaforo told _The Manila Times_ that the church upheld its stance on 'the sacredness of life,' stressing that Philippine laws should uphold this principle. The Reproductive Health Law was enacted in 2012 and has since faced opposition from the Catholic Church.

00:00You know, our country is a non-negotiable stand on the sacredness of life.
00:08That's why it's so important to our beloved daughter, the Blessed Virgin Mary, our Lady of Guadalope.
00:19It's a year since she is coming here to the Philippines.
00:29It's a reminder for many of us on the sacredness of life.
00:33Because it's the patroness of the unborn.
00:40And imagine, hanggang ngayon, malaking issue pa rin, quotation mark, yung issue on abortion.
00:54In fact, in America at saka sa ibang mga bansa, they are having second thoughts already on the issue of
01:02the rights of women for abortion.
01:04Ano, napakahalaga ang pagbisita ng ating Mahalina sapagkat ito ay panawagan muli, lalong-lalo na sa ating mga legislators, lalong
01:17-lalo na sa ating mga public officials.
01:21Kung talaga ang layunin ng ating mga public officials at yung ating mga batas ay para sa kapakanaan ng lahat,
01:30at para sa halaga ng buhay na naka-enshrine in our constitution,
01:37the sacredness of life, is there in our constitution.
01:43Nako, dapat ay magdalawang isip sila yung ginawa nilang batas on reproductive health bill.
01:53Kasi, larong-laro doon na pinopromote natin yung mga paraan na tinatawag na artificial means of birth control.
02:06At yun ay magiging daan para maging mas madali yung pag-practice ng aborsyon.
02:16So, napakahalaga na ang pagbisita ng ating Mahalina would become some sort of a panawagang sa lahat na siguro magandang
02:31balikan muli ang ating batas tungkol sa reproductive health.
02:38At tingnan natin ng mabuti na maiwasan natin yung malaking quotation mark, temptasyon, na makagawa tayo ng kasalanan aborsyon.
02:52Khonowych.
02:53Isha ha?
02:53Sorry.
02:53Sorry.
