Senate defers impeachment trial
June 04, 2025
|The Freeman
Instead of proceeding with Vice President Sara Duterte’s impeachment trial, the Senate advanced several measures on third reading.
-
Senate President Francis Escudero originally scheduled the reading of the articles of impeachment versus Duterte on June 2. However, he chose to defer the start of the trial to June 11, citing the need to pass priority bills listed by the Legislative-Executive Development Advisory Council (LEDAC).
On its first day back in session, the Senate passed one of the LEDAC bills on third reading. The Escudero-sponsored Government Optimization Act, which aims to streamline the national government by reducing obsolete positions.
