Chiz inspects Senate facilities ahead of 20th Congress opening

Senate President Francis "Chiz" Escudero inspected the facilities of the Senate building and compound in preparation for the start of the first regular session of the 20th Congress on Monday, July 28, 2025. In a Facebook post on Wednesday, Escudero said he inspected the Senate session hall, committee rooms, and other offices in the upper chamber to ensure their readiness to cater to lawmakers, employees, visitors, and everyone in need of public service, once the session resumes. 'Nais nating matiyak na maayos at handa na ang mga tanggapan para sa pagbubukas ng Ika-20 Kongreso sa darating na Lunes,' the Senate President said in the caption. (We want to ensure that the offices are in order and ready for the opening of the 20th Congress this coming Monday.) 'Mahalaga sa akin na makita mismo ang kalagayan ng mga lugar kung saan tayo nagtatrabaho at nakikipagtalakayan. Lahat ng kailangang ayusin para sa kaginhawahan at kaligtasan ng lahat ay ating tinutukan,' he added. (It's important to me to see for myself the conditions of the areas where we will work in. We will focus on everything that needs to be fixed in order to provide comfort and safety for everyone.) On July 28, President Ferdinand "Bongbong" Marcos Jr. will also deliver his fourth State of the Nation Address (SONA) at the Batasang Pambansa after the 20th Congress formally opens its first regular session. — RF, GMA Integrated News
