An Act Creating a Special Geographic Area in the Bangsamoro Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao to Be Known as the Moro Province, Appropriating Funds Therefor, and for Other Purposes
The bill would create a new Moro Province inside the Bangsamoro region, made up of eight municipalities that joined BARMM in 2019. It would give the province its own government, its own congressional seat, and the power to raise taxes, run schools, fire stations, a jail and a prosecutor’s office, but it cannot raise local tax rates for the first five years.
