Senate to resume in-person work on Monday, June 15, says Sherwin Gatchalian

Senator Sherwin Gatchalian confirmed that the Senate session will resume in-person work on Monday, June 15, 2026.

In a report by Sam Nielsen on Super Radyo dzBB on Sunday, Gatchalian said the Senate would remain under heightened security measures and continue enforcing its no-visitor policy.

On June 9, Gatchalian issued a memorandum implementing heightened security measures and preventive security protocols in response to alleged security threats relayed by the National Bureau of Investigation (NBI).

Gatchalian and Senator Alan Peter Cayetano remain locked in a leadership impasse, with the latter maintaining that only a majority of 13 senators is required to validate the election of the Senate president. —Lyjah Tiffany Bonzo/MCG/KG, GMA News
