On November 30, 2025, thousands of Filipinos joined the second Trillion Peso March across the country to protest corruption, especially in flood control projects. The demonstrations called for transparency, return of stolen funds, and ending political dynasties. Though peaceful, the rallies showed disunity in messages, from resignation calls to rejections of them.
Following President Marcos Jr.'s prioritization of an anti-dynasty bill, Akbayan Rep. Percival Cendaña criticized House versions filed by Speaker Faustino Dy III and Rep. Sandro Marcos, warning they would entrench rather than curb political dynasties by allowing family members to hold positions across government levels—contradicting the 1987 Constitution's intent.
