Abang Lingkod Partylist

The people have spoken against corruption. It is now our turn in Congress to do our part and ensure transparency and real reforms in the budget.

Transparency in the budget process ensures that every peso goes where it truly matters, free from hidden anomalies or questionable practices.

Today, I cast my vote for Rep. Faustino “Bojie” Dy III as the new Speaker of the House of Representatives. With this new leadership, we look forward to strengthening transparency, accountability, and unity in Congress as we work toward real solutions for the challenges our nation faces and the brighter future our people deserve.

BENITEZ WELCOMES HOUSE LEADERSHIP CHANGE — IKOT.PH Bacolod lone district Rep. Albee Benitez welcomed the impending change in leadership in the House of Representatives, calling it “the best

Statement of Bacolod Rep Alfredo Abelardo Benitez on other Negros Island Region representatives support for House Speaker Martin Romualdez:

From the very start I have made it clear that I am independent. I did not support Speaker Romualdez for the speakership, and I maintain that position. To continue expressing support for him now would only be seen as condoning and protecting him, when in fact serious issues remain unresolved, among them the controversy on alleged ghost flood control projects, questionable budget insertions, and the lack of transparency in the budget process, which all point to the leadership of the Speaker.

I understand why some of my fellow Negros Island Region congressmen signed the manifesto. They are simply trying to ensure that their districts will not suffer, and I respect that. But as for me, I have chosen to stand by my independent stance, because my priority is to uphold integrity and accountability in Congress.

Monday is the perfect day to set the tone for the week.

Happy Monday Ka-Abang Lingkod!
