House Speaker
Pantaleon Alvarez said that if Vice President Leni Robredo wants to call the
shots on how lawmakers should vote on the death penalty, she must to win the
speaker first.
“She should give up
the vice presidency, run again in her district and aspire for the speakership.
If she is elected speaker, she can run the House the way she wants to. I will
not meddle with her. In the meantime, she should not meddle with us,” Alvarez
said.
Recently, VP Robredo
said that Alvarez should allow his colleagues to vote on the proposal to bring
back death penalty according to their conscience.
Alvarez also dared
Bishops to be in his shoes first before criticizing his decisions.
“They should not
meddle with us. Why should they tell me how to do my job? They should first run
for Congress,” he said.
“We have to help
President Duterte by approving the legislative measures he is pushing for, like
the death penalty bill. If I cannot shepherd the approval of these measures,
what I am Speaker for? They might as well replace me,” he said.
