MANILA, Philippines — Vice President Leni Robredo said Wednesday that she will certify the Security of Tenure Bill as urgent if she is elected president.

“Kailangan nang ipasa ng Kongreso na kapag nakaupo tayo ay gagawin nating, ise-certify as urgent natin. Iyong isa dito yung pagpasa ng Security of Tenure Bill sa Kongreso na long overdue,” Robredo said in an interview over Radyo Veritas.

(Congress must pass these laws which if we get to sit in office, we will certify as urgent. One of these is the passage of the Security of Tenure Bill in Congress which is long overdue.)
