We, the Filipino people, want accountability. It is paramount that the Senate of the Philippines acts decisively to pursue the impeachment of Vice President Sara Duterte. The power of impeachment belongs neither to the legislative nor expires with each Congress; it is a mandate of accountability as voiced by our Constitution.

The call for impeachment is not just a point of public discourse; it is a necessity for upholding the principles of democracy and ensuring that public officials are held accountable for their actions. Our Constitution insists on a final decision by the Senate, reflecting the will of the people and the spirit of justice.

When leaders fail to account for their actions, it erodes public trust and undermines democratic institutions. The power bestowed upon the Senate must translate into action without delay. It is not bound by traditional legislative timelines and should carry forward with determination and integrity.

Note that the presentation of the articles of impeachment by the House of Representatives prosecution panel against Vice President Sara Duterte before the Senate has been moved from June 2 to June 11, Senate President Francis "Chiz" Escudero has said.

Let us not forget, the good Senator once questioned where is the clamor for this impeachment months ago. Let us show him that the majority of the Filipino people want this trial to proceed.

To ensure due process and accountability, the Philippine Senate must push through with the proceedings to impeach Vice President Sara Duterte, with continuity and transparency. This is an opportunity to demonstrate that no one is above the law and every official, regardless of stature, is accountable to the nation they serve.

Join us in urging the Senate to stand firm for justice and uphold the tenets of accountability. Sign the petition to ensure a transparent, continuous, and decisive action regarding Vice President Duterte's impeachment.
