No Special Session Needed Senate President Escudero Reiterates Opposition to Impeachment Trial on Constitutional Grounds

Senate President Vicente Tito Sotto III has reiterated his opposition to a special session of Congress to conduct an impeachment trial, citing constitutional concerns. This stance echoes that of Senator Frank Drilon, who had earlier voiced similar reservations.

In a statement, Escudero emphasized that the Constitution requires a quorum of at least one-third of all members of both houses to convene in a special session. He noted that there is currently no majority support among senators for an impeachment trial, making a special session unnecessary and potentially unconstitutional.

It's not a question of whether we're willing to conduct an impeachment trial or not, Escudero said. The issue is whether the necessary quorum can be reached to make such a move constitutional. Until that threshold is met, there is no need for a special session.

This stance has sparked debate among lawmakers and political analysts, with some arguing that Escudero's concerns are unfounded and that the Senate should proceed with the impeachment trial regardless.

The controversy surrounding the potential impeachment of President [insert name] continues to dominate headlines and shape the nation's political landscape. As the situation unfolds, it remains to be seen whether Escudero's opposition will hold or if a special session will ultimately be convened to conduct an impeachment trial.

Enjoy the little things in life. For one day, you may look back and realize they were the big things. Many of life's failures are people who did not realize how close they were to success when they gave up.
