Sen. Bong Go Wants Fast, Inclusive & Caring Services for Filipinos
BONG GO – The reelected Senator filed 21 priority measures in the 20th Congress — his 3rd batch of proposed bills.
Sen. Go led the senatorial race winners in the 2025 Midterm Elections. He was one of the senatorial bets of the PDP-Laban which was supported by the Duterte family. It is no secret to the public that the Senator is really very close to the Dutertes.
