Marcos tells senators: Get back to work

President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. on urges senators to 'get back to work' after the Senate failed to convene for two days due to an impasse between the majority and minority blocs. 'I’m afraid all these events that we have been witnessing has thrown the Senate and its leadership, the whole Senate into disarray. It has discredited the leadership and it has stopped the essential business of legislation and government,' Marcos said during a media interview in Malate.

00:00Get back to work because it's important. Ang dami natin kailangan gawin. Look, we had a meeting sa Uplift Committee.
00:09Marami tayong kailangan pagawa sa mga batas na mga batas. We were thinking may baka magkasupplemental budget, baka magamendahan namin
00:19ang mga ibang batas. Ito ay kailangan para makapagbigay tayo ng tulong sa taong bayad dahil nga sa oil crisis.
00:26Kung walang session, hindi ko nga maintindihan eh dahil ang pagkaanintindi ko. Ang rules, ang congressman naman ako, nagsinagotin naman.
00:40Ang rules dyan, bago ka mag-cancel ng session, you have to inform the other house three days before you
00:50cancel a session.
00:51And there has to be a very good risk for cancelling a session. I don't think na ihakatid mo ang
00:58isang senador para pumunta kung saan siya pumunta.
01:02Hindi yata sapat na dahilan niyan para i-cancel ang isang session.
01:08Isang session lang nun. Ngayon, cancelado na naman isang session. Hindi ko nga maintindihan kung paano siya magtatrabaho kung ganito.
01:17Ang House of Representatives kayo ay nagtataka kung paano ba, nagbago na ba yung rules, nagbago na ba yung mga
01:26patatid natin kagayang magpagawa sa mga nakaraan.
01:29It is a rule that is contained in the Constitution.
01:35And so, I'm afraid whatever, all these events that we have been witnessing has thrown the Senate and its leadership,
01:51the whole Senate into disarray, it has discredited the leadership, and it has stopped the essential business of legislation and
02:04government.
02:05The two other departments continue to work. The executive continues to work. The judiciary continues to work.
02:11Why does the legislature decide? Why does the legislature decide to stop working?
02:42Why does the legislature begin to work? Why is it working?
