An Act to Ensure Genuine Representation of Marginalized and Underrepresented Sectors in the Party-List System, Amending for the Purpose Republic Act No. 7941 or the 'party-List System' Act
The proposal rewrites key parts of the Party‑List System Act to make sure that only groups truly representing poor or marginalized sectors can run, that they prove this in a public hearing, and that they are held accountable if they do not work for their sector. It also bans party‑list names that look like government programs, stops close relatives of top officials from becoming nominees, and requires voter‑education campaigns.
