What happened
The House of Representatives stated it is prepared to act on President Ferdinand R. Marcos, Jr.'s proposals regarding energy and tax reform. These proposals include amendments to the Electric Power Industry Reform Act and the National Internal Revenue Code. The chamber aims to pass legislation that removes system loss charges from electricity bills and updates income tax brackets to increase workers’ take-home pay.

Why it matters
The push focuses on ensuring consumers are not responsible for costs arising from power system inefficiencies or electricity theft. The House indicated that households consuming up to 200 kilowatt-hours monthly could see potential savings of about P80 if system loss charges are eliminated.
