Senate urged to probe Marcoleta over SOCE inaccuracies
An election watchdog has urged the Senate ethics committee to investigate Senator Rodante Marcoleta for alleged "willful and deliberate falsehood" in his Statement of Contributions and Expenditures (SOCE) for the May 2025 elections.
Kontra Daya and the Advocates of Public Interest Law (APIL) filed a letter requesting the probe after Marcoleta admitted in a television interview that he did not fully disclose his campaign donors.
The groups argue that Marcoleta's actions raise serious questions about his compliance with election law and the expected standards of conduct for a Philippine Senator.
They believe his conduct is inconsistent with Senate expectations and diminishes public confidence in its leadership.
