Belmonte: Anti-political dynasty not anti-Binay

The anti-political dynasty bill—which prohibits two or more individuals who are related within the second degree of consanguinity from holding or running for a national or local post in successive, simultaneous or overlapping terms—should not alarm Vice President Jejomar Binay and his family.

Speaker Feliciano Belmonte, Jr. of Quezon City, who would be affected by the measure if it passes into law since his daughter Joy is the vice mayor of Quezon City, made the stance with the anti-political dynasty bill up for plenary debates  next week.
