The proposed measure sets a total of 500 to 1,000 percent increase in campaign spending per voter for each elective position

The House of Representatives approved on Monday the bill which seeks to increase the limit for election campaign expenditures of political candidates.

. The proposed House bill also seeks to increase the expenses of political parties. For national candidates, the cap is at ₱50 per voter compared to the ₱5 per voter in the present statute. While local candidates, who don’t have an expenditure limit in RA 7166, now has a cap of up to ₱30 per voter in the new measure.

Gabriela Party-list Rep. Arlene Brosas, one of the six who voted against the bill, said the bill favors the rich and powerful during the elections.

Wow that means mas madami pang kukurakutin!!!! Ang galing galing naman!👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

That's timely. Let's increase spending to spur economic growth.

itong mga bills naipapasa lagi na lang pabor sa mga politiko

Dami din na nman magpapauto sa mga pulitiko sa 2022,daming kupit ay este budget si bong ga go

Para patas ang laban wala dapat spending. Pantay pantay na exposure. Labanan lang ng utak at plataporma.

The reason for the imposition of that spending limit is to make the field fair for all candidates - rich or poor. This move will benefit only those with the capacity to spend more.

Kaya pala hindi ramdam yung 275B, mga hayup. Tapos dinagdag pa yung Anti terrorism shit, napaka gago talaga ng gobyerno na to

Pera sa election meron, donation sa covid wala.

Let's NOT VOTE for these SENATORS & CONGRESSMAN approving Laws attacking & Curtailing Pinoy Rights, in the NEXT ELECTIONS, SIMPLE DIBA? PLS NAMAN, MADALA NAMAN TAYO WAG MAGPALOKO KABAYAN

E ang dami nyo palang pera e bat di nyo binigyan lahat ng ayuda? Bat utang kayo ng utang? Or ung utang ang gagamitin nyo para dito?

Mas malinaw na ang plano. Nakaipon na ng pondo galing sa emergency powers. Bilyon bilyon, kaya pwede nang ikasa ang pamimili ng boto ni Bong Go sa 2022. Tapos walang pwede magreklamo dahil may Terrorism Law na malapit na ipasa. Galawang DDS talaga!!!JUNKTERRORBILLNOW

shuta daming pera ah hahahshhshdhshshshsh

Mahal daw bayad sa mga troll. Walang kwenta talaga mga tongressmen!!

basta pagkqkaperahan ang bibilis nitong mga trapong to 👊

Basta pagkakakitaan pangkabuhayan ang bilis.

Wtf. Eh di mas dadami i kukurakot nila

Hindi ko alam bakit nila ngayon yan ginagawa? insensitive ba sila sa mga nangyayari?

Wow daming pera. Priorities in the middle of a pandemic 🤡

Wala na daw ayuda ngayong June. Sa May 2022 na next na ayuda.
