Similarly as the nation began the Lenten season, the House of Representatives on Ash Wednesday endorsed on second perusing the bill looking to reestablish the death penalty.
This after the House majority share on Wednesday's session endorsed by voice voting House Bill 4727 which tries to force the death penalty on drug related offenses.
The ayes won over the nays with the last led by the anti-death penalty legislators Albay Rep. Edcel Lagman and Buhay Rep. Lito Atienza.
The second reading approval of the bill puts the reclamation of capital punishment nearer to its third and last reading, when the bill would simply be voted upon by officials without the need of amendments.
The House amid its entire session voted to approve the bill after it shut the time of amendments, turning a hard of hearing ear to requests by the restriction to revive the revisions on the bill.
Toward the start of the session, directing Speaker Batangas Rep. Raneo Abu, acting greater part floor pioneer Pampanga Rep. Juan Pablo Bondoc and the bill's support Oriental Mindoro Rep. Reynaldo Umali opened the floor for individual corrections.
At last, it was a numbers diversion, and the House whole by viva voce shot down all the proposed singular revisions.
Umali later on requested an omnibus dismissal of all the comparable corrections pitched by Lagman, who proposed to erase "death" in the bill and force the most extreme punishment of maximum penalty of reclusion temporal or reclusion perpetua.
