Hontiveros pushes for divorce law anew

Sen. Risa Hontiveros is again pushing for the passage of a bill allowing divorce in the Philippines, after failing to get enough support in the previous Congress. Hontiveros, the lone legislator from Akbayan party, filed the Divorce Act of 2019 ahead of the opening of the 18th Congress later this month.
