Tatangkain ni House Deputy Speaker Loren Legarda na makabalik sa Senado sa 2022 elections.
Si Legarda, na kinatawan ng Antique sa Mababang Kapulungan, ay three-term senator na at pinamunuan ang Senate Committees on Finance, Foreign Relations, Economic Affairs, Environment and Climate Change.
“Our pandemic recovery should respond to the health needs of our people and on our economic recovery and should be attuned to the climate pathway as we are also dealing with the climate crisis. With my 20 years of experience as Senator and my stint as Representative of the Lone District of Antique, I am confident that I can do much more to help solve the twin crisis, for the welfare of the Filipino people,” sabi nito.
Pinangunahan niya ang senatorial race noong 1998 at 2007 at aniya isusulong niya ang kapakanan ng mga darating na henerasyon at ipagpapatuloy ang mga nasimulang adbokasiya.
“More jobs and livelihood, quality education, efficient healthcare system, stronger environmental protection and cultural preservation – these are what I have always championed since I was first elected Senator in 1998 and these are what I will continue to prioritize, given a fresh start in the Senate in 2022. I would like to continue what I have started and do much more – provide for the needs of all Filipinos, bring the government programs closer to them especially to the marginalized and vulnerable, and ensure an inclusive, equitable, resilient and sustainable growth and recovery for all,” dagdag pa niya.
