Press Release January 29, 2024 Statement of Senate Minority Leader Koko Pimentel on the Comelec's decision to stop all proceedings related to the people's initiative I welcome the decision by the Comelec to stop all proceedings related to the people's initiative seeking to revise the 1987 Constitution. Nagising din sa katotohanan. I am glad that Comelec has listened to us and the Filipino people. This move is Comelec's acknowledgement of limitations of its authority. I repeat, the Comelec has no authority under the law to formulate guidelines on people's initiative, even to accept signatures. |
