         Whatever is happening or would be the result of the leadership intramurals in the minority, as principal author and sponsor of the RH bill, I am ready to defend to the hilt the measure and shepherd it through passage.

         The advocates are ready and waiting for the remaining interpellators to stand up for the debates.

         I call on the House leadership to prioritize the consideration of the RH bill and calendar it for daily plenary debates.

         The impeachment proceedings should not be used to derail the passage of a long delayed legislation which will benefit the multitude of women and children.
