Sabi ko kay misis ko nung napa daan kami sa catholic church sa lugar namin... "Hon pusta ko ang isang itlog ko, babanat yang pari ng anti-RH sa simbang gabi."

Good to know na safe ang isang itlog ko.

Today is the day...but look what the Damasos and their minions are planning.

Getting news about how low the #AntiRH is going to derail #RHBill. Physically blocking representatives from going to the vote is their move today, along with constant harrassment of the Congressmen. So sad.

[Monseratto]

Next the Damasos will say that the Conneticut shootings is the maker's way of punishing mankind for the Philippine's passing of the RH bill....

Bishop compares President Aquino to Connecticut shooter because of the Reproductive Health bill
Published: Dec 17, 2012 - 8:29am

For one Roman Catholic bishop, President Benigno Aquino III is like Adam Lanza, a gunman who opened fire on children and adults at an elementary school in Connecticut over the weekend, if not worse.

According to a report by Evelyn Macairan of the Philippine Star, "Batangas Archbishop Ramon Arguelles yesterday said that while a 20-year-old gunman killed 20 children in the US, President Aquino would be killing millions of children with a stroke of a pen if he signs the RH bill into law."

"Our President intends to kill 20 million children with a fountain pen…to sign the RH bill into law," Arguelles said.

The Catholic Church is opposed to passage of the bill, which will make reproductive health services and contraceptives available to poor Filipinos. Critics of the proposed law have said passage of the bill will legalize abortion and will lead to promiscuity.

After Typhoon Pablo hit the southern Philippines, another Church leader, Manila Auxiliary Bishop Broderick Pabillo said the typhoon that left more than a thousand dead, could be a message from God about the RH bill.

3rd reading and final voting na. Ano na latest ngayon sa congreso?

[Stoner]

News about Anti-RH people physically blocking the entrance to the House so that Pro-RH reps and supporters won't be able to get in.

How they've sunk so low.

Oh, and forcibly preventing people from attending a national assembly is a crime if I'm not mistaken...

[Retz]

dito sa tsikot poll, overwhelming ang yes sa RH Bill.

konti lang and nagpapaloko sa mga bishops and priests dito. we choose to exercise logic with faith instead of blind obedience to obsolete catholic dogma.

Dalawang sunod na gabi na puro rh bill inaatupag pag homily...hay kainis.

Hay... if I were there, I would have walked out (via the center aisle) of the church to express my opinion of the homily.

Nakalusot sa 2nd reading sa Senate! Miraglo nag pro-RH sa Recto, who happens to be LP...hmmm.

(Updated 6:31 p.m.) Voting 13-8, the Senate on Monday finally passed on second reading the controversial Reproductive Health (RH) bill.

After approving a vote on the third and final reading, senators are currently delivering speeches justifying their votes. With the House approval of its version of the legislation last week, the RH bill appears headed for passage into law, hastened by President Aquino's push of the bill as "urgent."

Senate President Juan Ponce Enrile, Senate President Pro Tempore Jinggoy Estrada, Senators Aquilino "Koko" Pimentel III, Antonio Trillanes IV, Manuel Villar, Bong Revilla, Vicente Sotto III, and Gregorio Honasan voted against the passage of the bill.

On the other hand, Senators Edgardo Angara, Joker Arroyo, Pia Cayetano, Alan Peter Cayetano, Miriam Defensor-Santiago, Franklin Drilon, Francis Escudero, Teofisto Guingona III, Panfilo Lacson, Loren Loren, Ferdinand Marcos Jr., Francis Pangilinan, and Ralph Recto voted for the measure.

Senator Pia Cayetano, co-sponsor of Senate Bill No.2865 or The Reproductive Health Act, first sponsored the measure on June 7, 2011.

But it only hurdled the period of interpellation almost a year after last June.

Since then, several senators have moved to introduce amendments to the bill during the period of committee and individual amendments.

Included in the major amendments are:
• the removal of the mandate on local government units (LGU) to provide healthcare services to their constituents; and
• the requirement of parental consent from minors who wish to gain access to RH services, including contraceptives, from public health facilities.

RH bill headed for approval in both houses of Congress | News | GMA News Online | The Go-To Site for Filipinos Everywhere

Hearing his speech, kinda obvious he was about to vote yes.

But he really cut a lot out of the bill in Amendments. Some of those, I don't agree with... LGUs should not be able to decide their own implementations, though they should not be forced to do it without budget... but some, like the penalties for employers and private hospitals... hell yes. Hindi dapat i-force ng government ang gusto niya sa mga hospitals.

Look at it another way... if the bill were the other way around... would you force a hospital to NOT dispense condoms?

[Monseratto]

The RH bill has passed third and final reading in the Senate (13 - 8) and in congress (133-79-7). In congress, obviously some of the 107 who voted no on second reading has switched... Now for the bicameral committee.
