Sandro Marcos Inhibits from House Proceedings on Impeachment Complaints vs. President Marcos

House Majority Leader and presidential son Ferdinand Alexander “Sandro” Marcos III has formally recused himself from all actions and discussions of the House Committee on Rules concerning the impeachment complaints filed against his father, President Ferdinand “Bongbong” Marcos Jr.

Marcos said the decision was made to avoid any perception of conflict of interest and to ensure fairness and credibility in the legislative process. The Committee on Rules is responsible for setting the procedures and calendar for impeachment-related matters in the House of Representatives.

He earlier stated that he would not prevent or interfere with any individual or group seeking to initiate impeachment proceedings against the President, stressing that due process and constitutional mechanisms must be respected.

Several impeachment complaints against President Marcos have been filed and are currently undergoing preliminary consideration in the House.
