PDP-Laban was co-founded by Pimentel's father, former senator Aquilino Pimentel Jr. The younger Pimentel took the helm in 2010. PDP-Laban went through a rough patch in 2018 when the camp of presidential friend Rogelio Garcia held party elections toPimentel had dismissed the party election as unofficial. The Supreme Court backed him in July 2019, as itof the party during the 2019 senatorial elections, where PDP-Laban fielded 5 candidates. Of the 5, only former Maguindanao 2nd district representative Zajid Mangudadatu lost.

Pacquiao recently hosted important party meetings in his Makati residence. Some lawmakers wondered why even some of the House speakership meetings were held in Pacquiao's home when he was only designated to announce the official party bet for speaker.

He bolted LP to join then-vice president Jejomar Binay in PDP-Laban. He left PDP-Laban in 2016 to join Binay's United Nationalist Alliance, which was formed in 2015 in preparation for Binay's presidential bid.
