Robredo urges support for Hontiveros, backs Aquino and Pangilinan in 2025 Senate race

Former Vice President Leni Robredo called on supporters to give Senator Risa Hontiveros allies in the Senate as she spoke at the campaign rally of Bam Aquino and Kiko Pangilinan in Dasmariñas, Cavite, on Tuesday, February 11, 2025.

Robredo praised Hontiveros for her performance in the Senate but emphasized the need for like-minded colleagues to strengthen their stance on key issues.

“Her fight will be easier if she has allies. That’s why our next task is to ensure that Senator Risa has strong and competent partners in the Senate. We can do this in 2025 by electing two of our most dedicated allies—Bam Aquino and Kiko Pangilinan,” Robredo said.

She also reassured supporters that hope for a “good governance” remains alive despite the setback in the 2022 elections, where she and Pangilinan ran but lost in the presidential and vice-presidential races.

Aquino, running under Katipunan ng Nagkakaisang Pilipino, and Pangilinan, representing the Liberal Party, are political allies in the upcoming 2025 midterm elections.
