President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. urged Congress to prioritize four key legislative measures during a Legislative-Executive Development Advisory Council (LEDAC) meeting: the Anti-Dynasty Law, Independent People's Commission Act, Party-list System Reform Act, and the CADENA Act.
Palace Press Officer Clarissa A. Castro stated that the President instructed both houses to take a closer look at the four bills and prioritize their passage.
However, Mr. Marcos did not certify the bills as urgent, meaning they must still follow the standard legislative process.
The 1987 Constitution prohibits political dynasties, but a specific law has yet to be enacted.
The LEDAC meeting also discussed the timeline for the 2026 national budget, with the President aiming to sign the General Appropriations Act by December 29.
