Congress resumes session today

“We are almost done with the priority bills agreed upon by Congress and the executive branch. We have approved on final reading all but four of the 57 measures in the Legislative-Executive Development Advisory Council (LEDAC) list,” Speaker Martin Romualdez said over the weekend.

Another measure would be passed on third and final reading, leaving only three measures awaiting final approval, he added.
