"I endorse JV Ejercito as he runs for the Senate in the upcoming elections. JV Ejercito has always been a friend and a partner of this administration in pushing for advocacies that advance our development agenda, especially for the poor...I know that he has always served our country and people with diligence and hard work. I hope that you’ll give him another chance to serve you. Good luck, JV, at mabuhay ka."

“We’re supporting Senator JV. I have been hearing a lot of good feedback, comments from his fellow senators. Noong nag-aattend ako ng Senate hearings, every time they mention JV, laging positive. So, these are the kind of people that we want in the Senate. And we need genuine leaders in the Senate and that’s Senator JV."
