3 lawmakers back measure postponing BSKE anew
The Philippine Star|May 13, 2024
Three members of the House of Representatives have expressed support for a measure seeking to defer anew the holding of the barangay and Sangguniang Kabataan elections (BSKE) scheduled in December 2025.

House Deputy Majority Leader Jude Acidre and Reps. Faustino Dy V and Ernesto Dionisio Jr. backed House Bill 10344, which proposes the holding of the BSKE in October 2026, or a year and a half after the 2025 midterm elections.

“It would be unfair to limit or reduce the three years for which these officials are elected, and who are entitled to a term of three years,” Acidre of party-list Tingog said of the proposal authored by Camarines Sur Rep. LRay Villafuerte.
