MANILA – Members of the Makabayan bloc in the House of Representatives disputed Friday the findings of a Senate panel that investigated the alleged policy of the state to link activists and dissenters

to the communist movement.

"We disagree with the Senate report's affirmation that red-tagging is not a policy of the state, which merely echoed the pronouncements made by officials leading the administration's counterinsurgency effort," Castro said. The Makabayan bloc is made up of Castro, Bayan Muna Party-list Representatives Carlos Zarate, Ferdinand Gaite, and Eufemia Cullamat, Gabriela Party-list Rep. Arlene Brosas, and Kabataan Party-list Rep. Sarah Elago.
