President Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr.'s administration reports that only one of his eight priority legislative bills has been submitted to Malacañang for his signature nearly a month after he directed Congress to hold a special session. The completed bill, the Last Mile and Geographically Isolated, Disadvantaged, and Conflict-Affected Areas Schools Act, was submitted on June 25. Other bills, including amendments to education-related laws and proposals for geriatric health and crisis assistance, are at various stages of bicameral deliberation. Some bills have passed the House of Representatives but remain pending in the Senate. Despite challenges such as the impeachment trial of Vice President Sara Duterte and budget discussions, the administration expresses confidence that the remaining bills will be passed by year-end.
Bias read (Center): The article presents factual updates on the status of legislative priorities without overtly favoring any side. It quotes official statements from Malacañang and outlines the procedural steps required for the bills to reach the president's desk. There is no evident loaded language, one-sided framing
