판필로 락손 상원의원은 임기 연장이나 대통령 출마 연령 제한 변경을 위해 제헌 의회를 소집하려 한다는 보도를 부인했다. 그는 인터뷰에서 해당 주장은 "모두 헛소리"이자 "말도 안 되는 이야기"라고 일축했다. 락손 의원은 상원 의원 수 증원에 관한 매우 예비적인 논의만 있었을 뿐이라고 밝혔다. 그는 연령 자격 요건을 높이는 것은 어떠한 논의에서도 다뤄진 적이 없다고 덧붙였다. 자네트 가린 하원 부의장과 주드 아시드레 하원 위원장도 해당 보도를 "순전한 유언비어"이자 "근거 없는 음모론"이라며 부인했다. 파우스티노 디 3세 하원의장은 하원이 6월 6일 휴회를 앞두고 38개 법안 처리에 집중하고 있다고 전했다.
