Senator Loren Legarda has filed her second batch of priority bills for the 17th Congress and said that these proposed measures are aimed at building an inclusive society and ensuring equitable opportunities for all.
“To be able to give everyone equal and equitable opportunities for growth, we need to address not only the concerns of Filipinos in general, but even more so those of our senior citizens, war veterans, persons with disabilities (PWDs), solo parents and others who have special needs that make it more challenging for them to be part of nation building,” said Legarda.

Senator Loren Legarda today expressed solidarity with Filipino Muslims as she enjoined all Filipinos, regardless of religious and spiritual beliefs, to share in the celebration of Eid’l Fitr.
“I wish to extend my warm wishes and greetings to our Muslim brothers and sisters around the world on the occasion of Eid’l Fitr. You show what Islam is all about. You display deep faith and devotion, discipline, obedience and charity, with Muslims across the world giving what they can and giving up what they own for the less fortunate. We are witness to your compassion as you open your doors to people of all backgrounds. The faith, humility, and patience that Eid’l Fitr symbolizes are virtues that we must all have as Filipinos,” Legarda stressed.
