The Catholic Bishops’ Conference of the Philippines feared that proponents of the RH Bill are trying to railroad the passage of the legislation before Congress goes on a break next month. CBCP president Jaro Archbishop Angel Lagdameo said they learned some lawmakers are pressuring House Speaker Prospero Nograles to set only three dates this month for the debate before the bill is voted on. He called on Nograles to allow the “normal process of discussion and interpellation,” saying such an important matter deserved a “prolonged discussion and debate.”
