Datu Michael Abas Kida v Senate

On June 30, 2011, Republic Act (RA) No. 10153, entitled An Act Providing for the
Synchronization of the Elections in the Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao
(ARMM) with the National and Local Elections and for Other Purposes was
enacted. The law reset the ARMM elections from the 8th of August 2011, to the second
Monday of May 2013 and every three (3) years thereafter, to coincide with the
countrys regular national and local elections. The law as well granted the
President the power to appoint officers-in-charge (OICs) for the Office of the
Regional Governor, the Regional Vice-Governor, and the Members of the Regional
Legislative Assembly, who shall perform the functions pertaining to the said
offices until the officials duly elected in the May 2013 elections shall have
qualified and assumed office.

The petitioners in G.R. No. 197280 also challenge the validity of RA No.
10153 for its alleged failure to comply with Section 26(2), Article VI of the
Constitution[18] which provides that before bills passed by either the House or the
Senate can become laws, they must pass through three readings on separate days.
The exception is when the President certifies to the necessity of the bills immediate
enactment.

the two-fold purpose that underlies the requirement for three readings on
separate days of every bill must always be observed to enable our legislators and
other parties interested in pending bills to intelligently respond to
them. Specifically, the purpose with respect to Members of Congress is: (1) to
inform the legislators of the matters they shall vote on and (2) to give them notice
that a measure is in progress through the enactment process.[23]
 Tolentino v Secretary of Finance
Sec 24: All appropriation, revenue or tariff bills, bills authorizing increase of the public debt, bills
of local applications, and private bills shall originate exclusively in the HoR, but the senate may propose or
concur with amendments.
These are motions seeking reconsideration of our decision dismissing the petitions filed in
these cases for the declaration of unconstitutionality of R.A. No. 7716, otherwise known as the
Expanded Value-Added Tax Law.
R.A. No. 7716 did not "originate exclusively" in the House of Representatives as required by
Art. VI, §24 of the Constitution.
Senate amended by substitution. SB No. 1630 substituted HB No. 11197
President wrote to senate about SB No. 1630 to be passed immediately. They responded by
voting on the bill on 2nd and 3rd reading on the same day.
