Last June 29, 2006, the Senate Committee on Health and Demography led by Senator Pia Cayetano conducted a hearing on 21 selected Senate Bills. ALFI opposed 6 of them in our Position Paper of June 29, 2006. We also opposed Senate Bill 1769 on Mandatory HIV Testing for Pregnant Mothers and Infants. On the other hand, we supported 3 other legislative proposals, Senate Bills 118, 1661 and 2016.
We also requested that 10 other Bills, including one pro-family Bill, be separated from what ALFI refers to as the “Cayetano 21 Initiative” since they are part of basic health care.
