The House of Representatives will vote on Wednesday whether to move for the revocation of President Rodrigo Duterte’s Proclamation 216 that declared martial law and suspended the privilege of the writ of habeas corpus in Mindanao.

Majority Leader Rodolfo Fariñas made the announcement a day before the scheduled briefing by the military on the attacks of the Maute Group in Marawi City, Lanao del Sur. Members of the House will be briefed on the situation in Marawi during an executive session this morning.
