Labor leaders vow 2 million votes for Robredo's presidential bid
ALL4LENI seeks labor leader's inclusion in Robredo's Senate slate MANILA — A coalition of labor leaders on Tuesday expressed unconditional support for Vice President Leni Robredo’s bid for the presidency even if she won’t choose the bloc's own senatorial bet as part of her slate.
Asked about the prospect of Matula’s exclusion from the list of 12, ALL4LENI’S Nice Coronacion said they will continue supporting the Vice President. “Si Ka Sonny Matula ay kilala bilang isa sa mga kampeon ng agenda ng manggagawa at matibay na paninindigan laban sa diktadura at otoritaryanismo sa bansa,” ALL4LENI said in its statement read during the briefing.The group said representing the laborers is enough reason for Matula to be included in Robredo’s Senate slate although it wished more candidates could have been accommodated.
The group vowed to raise money to support Robredo’s candidacy, even going as far as launching a “Piso Para Kay VP Leni” campaign that aims to collect 1 peso from every member, who are also encouraged to actively campaign for the vice president.
