Gov.
Rosette Y. Lerias
Southern Leyte |
As
the governors welcome the nomination of Sen. Manuel Villar
as Senate President, they expect it to usher in a more responsive
legislature.
In a resolution sponsored by Gov. Rosette Y. Lerias of Southern
Leyte, the league underscored the need for “a more
responsive Senate to prevent legislative gridlock in governance,
and promote political stability in the country.
It may be recalled that Villar, upon assuming the Senate
presidency, said that “the Senate must address its
collective wisdom to pursue the ends of national development
in partnership with the executive branch and all concerned
sectors of the Philippine society.”
Villar has also acknowledged that the Senate need not be
adversarial in order to be independent and has underscored
the executive branch’s need for legislative support
to implement its programs aimed at improving the quality
of life of the Filipinos.
The league has appealed to the Senate, under the leadership
of Villar, to facilitate the passage of significant legislations
and promote political stability in the country. (AJS)
