With the conclusion of the 19th Congress fast approaching, Romualdez said its target of approving 100 percent of the LEDAC priority measures is just one bill short.

"The approval showed Congress' commitment to deliver responsive legislations under President Marcos," Romualdez said.

Aside from the passage of 27 LEDAC bills, the House also approved 61 of the 64 priority measures under the Common Legislative Agenda for the 19th Congress.
