On Sen. Leila's bday, Sen. Kiko presses SC to allow her to take part in ICC withdrawal hearings

Senator Leila de Lima's birthday will not go unmarked. In celebration of her birthday, we are thankful for having Sen. Leila in our midst, who has shown us what courage and fortitude is.

We commit these to Sen. Leila:

* To continue pressing the courts to allow her to take part in the hearings on the Philippines' withdrawal from the International Criminal Courts through a video or teleconference;

* To pursue requests that she be allowed to exercise her duties as legislator, such as conducting hearings, despite being behind bars;

* To be unceasing in our position that she did not commit any wrongdoings and that the charges against her were all fabricated;

* To continue praying for her safety and good health.

Happy birthday, Sen. Leila!
