TACLOBAN CITY – Tingog party-list has welcomed the rise in public trust in the House of Representatives, attributing the positive shift to the consistent and responsive leadership of Speaker Ferdinand Martin Romualdez.
The latest Social Weather Stations (SWS) national survey reflects growing confidence in the lower chamber of Congress, capping the 19th Congress on a strong note despite a politically charged atmosphere.
“These results affirm the people’s trust in a House that has remained focused on passing legislation that uplifts lives and safeguards the nation’s future,” said TINGOG Representative Jude Acidre. “We are proud to serve under Speaker Martin Romualdez, whose steady leadership has guided the chamber through challenging times while pushing for meaningful reforms.”
Under Speaker Romualdez’s watch, the House has passed key measures spanning labor, education, healthcare, national security, and economic development. Acidre stressed that the chamber’s legislative work has remained rooted in the needs of ordinary Filipinos.
“Despite political headwinds, the House stayed true to its constitutional mandate. We did the work—and the public responded,” he added. “This growing trust is not just a commendation—it’s a call to continue serving with discipline, consistency, and greater commitment.”
Tingog party-list Representative Andrew Romualdez and Rep. Acidre also underscored the importance of unity and delivery of results, especially as the 20th Congress prepares to open.
“This is a clear signal that the people value unity, competence, and real progress,” said Rep. Romualdez. “Under the leadership of Speaker Romualdez, the House has stayed on course toward these goals, and Tingog remains fully committed to continue that work.”
“As we open a new chapter in legislation, TINGOG will continue to champion a House that listens, acts, and delivers,” Acidre affirmed.
