Umaasa si Speaker Pantaleon Alvarez ipapasa ng mga senador ang panukala hinggil sa diborsiyo o dissolution of marriage upang bigyang-ginhawa ang maraming mag-asawa na bilanggo ng wasak na pagsasama.

“I know for a fact that a lot of people were trapped in failed mar­riages—they have been wallowing in misery for quite some time. The government has to address that,” ani Alvarez.

Kontra ang mga senador sa dis­solution of marriage bill.

Sa selebrasyon ng Eid’l Fitr sa Davao noong Sabado, ipinagtang­gol ni Pangulong Duterte si Alvarez sa mga paratang na ang paghahain niya ng dissolution bill “was self-serving, saying that as a member of the Manobo tribe, Alvarez can legally take as many wives as he can.”
