MANILA, Philippines – Rep. Ann Matibag will be running unopposed in her bid for a second term as Laguna First District congresswoman after no other candidate filed a certificate of candidacy during the final deadline last Tuesday.
Except for the City of San Pedro or Laguna’s First District, the other legislative districts of the province — second, third and fourth — will be having election showdowns for House seats based on the last day of filing in Sta. Cruz, Laguna.
Matibag thanked her constituents trusting her since she took over as congresswoman in 2022, after serving as member of Laguna Provincial Board from the first district from 2019-2022.
“God and the people of San Pedro City made this happen. I am very thankful to all of you that you allow me to run for reelection unopposed. All I can guarantee is to continuously serve my constituents at the absolute best of LaguNANAY in congress for the people of San Pedro,” Matibag said.
Matibag was one of the principal authors of the Republic Act (RA) 11984 or the No Permit, No Exam prohibition act, the RA 11982, or the Expanded Centenarians Act, and the RA 11959 Regional Specialty Centers Act.
Among her projects were the two-storey, two-classroom public school building at Langgam Elementary School, six multi-purpose buildings, and hospital assistance.
She also helped provide financial assistance, and held monthly medical missions and vaccinations against flu, pneumonia and cervical cancer.
