2026年5月12日、上院議員5名が、ロナルド・“バト”・デラ・ロサ議員に対し、国際刑事裁判所（ICC）による逮捕状の発付を受けて当局へ自主的に出頭するよう求める決議案を提出した。
上院少数派ブロックは決議第395号の中で、上院には適法な逮捕から保護し、避難場所を提供する憲法上および法律上の権限はないと強調した。この決議には、元上院議長のティト・ソット議員、バム・アキノ議員、リサ・ホンティベロス議員、ピング・ラクソン議員、キコ・パンギリナン議員が署名した。この決議は、2025年11月に発行されたICCの逮捕状が確認された同日の2026年5月11日に、デラ・ロサ議員が上院に姿を現したことを受けて提出された。上院議員らは、憲法において逮捕が免除される特権は、禁錮6年以下の刑罰が科される犯罪に限定されていると指摘した。
