@iamkarendavila Rep. Joey Salceda: Before we went on recess, the consensus seemed to be towards processing the #ABSCBNFranchise. 
@iamkarendavila Salceda: In general, the mood in congress is towards approving #ABSCBNFranchise.
@iamkarendavila Salceda: Our modelling shows ABS-CBN closure will lead to 2,600 more #COVID19 infections. #ABSCBNFranchise
@iamkarendavila Salceda: If we can pass this in one week we can send it to the Senate right away. At this stage, it's too surreal for me that this thing has still happened. Andami naman diyang gray area na binibigyan ng provisional authority. #ABSCBNFranchise
@iamkarendavila Salceda: Are we predisposed to approve the #ABSCBNFranchise? The answer is yes.
@iamkarendavila Salceda: Si Chairman Alvarez, galit na galit. We were already working on the #ABSCBNFranchise.
@iamkarendavila Presidential Spokesperson Harry Roque: Decision of NTC isn't even appealable to the Office of the President; it's appealable to the courts. #ABSCBNFranchise
@iamkarendavila Roque: In our 20-minute conversation last night, he reiterated to me that he was neutral. His supporters in Congress can vote as they please, according to their conscience. #ABSCBNFranchise
@iamkarendavila Roque: NTC decision took me by surprise. It took two other high-level Palace officials by surprise. #ABSCBNFranchise
@iamkarendavila Roque: Duterte has said I should thank ABS-CBN for the help it has extended. I was even instructed to enumerate all the things ABS-CBN has done in the light of the #COVID19 pandemic. #ABSCBNFranchise
@iamkarendavila Roque: House lawmakers had more than enough time to study #ABSCBNFranchise renewal.
@iamkarendavila Roque: Tony La Viña said we could have influenced the House. We are influencing it now. We are telling House lawmakers that the president is neutral on this issue and they can vote according to their conscience. The Senate I think could pass this in a day. #ABSCBNFranchise
@iamkarendavila Roque: I have to do as the President says: Thank you to ABS-CBN for all the help amid the #COVID19 pandemic. He's really neutral on the issue. He is now telling House lawmakers, time to act on your conscience. You have a month to do it. #ABSCBNFranchise
@iamkarendavila Rep. Lito Atienza: Karen, hindi kita mabati ng magandang umaga. I'm very sorry. Kasalanan namin ito. This is the failure of Congress to do its job. But I will say it squarely now: kasalanan ni Speaker Cayetano po ito. #ABSCBNFranchise
@iamkarendavila Atienza: I cannot blame the NTC for doing its job. Ipapatawag ang NTC, bakit? Kasalanan namin ito. #ABSCBNFranchise
@iamkarendavila Atienza: The House has failed the Filipino people and we should pay for it. #ABSCBNFranchise
@iamkarendavila Atienza: If Cayetano would like to do something, we have a session today. We can act on it now. Ilagay lang niya sa agenda palagay ko 300 people will attend today. #ABSCBNfranchise
@iamkarendavila Atienza: Chairman Alvarez, 'wag ka nang mambola. Andami-dami naming franchise na tine-take up, yung sa ABS-CBN hindi. #ABSCBNfranchise
@iamkarendavila Atienza: If all members of Congress now speak up Speaker Cayetano will be drowned out in his stance. #ABSCBNfranchise
@iamkarendavila Atienza: I heard Harry Roque's statements. I know he is telling the truth. #ABSCBNfranchise
@iamkarendavila Atienza: In one week pwede namin pagbotohan 'to. Kahit pagdebatehan namin, gusto mo pagdebatehan pa namin. Mananalo 'to. #ABSCBNfranchise
@iamkarendavila Atienza: #ABSCBNfranchise can be renewed in one day.
@iamkarendavila Atienza: 'Pag magbigay si Cayetano ng go signal, aprubado na yan. #ABSCBNfranchise
@iamkarendavila Atienza: I know Cayetano is listening to me. This is Rep. Atienza speaking. Mahilig kang magsabi ng "God bless all of us." Yes, but we should do our job. Mag-reflect. Tutal mahilig ka magdasal. Whether or not it is approved is immaterial. Pero 'wag mong upuan. #ABSCBNfranchise
@iamkarendavila Atienza: This is one of the worst days of the Philippine Congress. We fought for a democracy and ngayon, hindi natin inaaksyunan. #ABSCBNfranchise
