参议院临时议长谢尔文·加查利安周二驳回了参议员艾伦·彼得·卡耶塔诺提出的权力共享建议。他坚称6月3日的领导层变动合法有效，不存在实行双重领导架构的空间。
加查利安在接受DZRH采访时表示，在6月3日的会议上，谁当选为参议院临时议长以及谁被指定为代理参议院议长是非常明确的。他说：“在6月3日的会议中，谁当选为参议院临时议长以及谁被指定为代理参议院议长，界定十分清晰。”这场争议始于6月3日，当时12名参议员组成法定人数并宣布所有职位空缺。加查利安随后被任命为代理参议院议长。卡耶塔诺则继续声称自己仍是参议院议长。总统府新闻官克莱尔·卡斯特罗敦促参议员们在总统召集特别会议之前解决分歧。马拉卡南宫承认加查利安的领导地位，并表示不存在宪法危机。
