MANILA, Philippines – The House of Representatives on Tuesday, March 10, approved on third and final reading a bill resetting the date of the first regional parliamentary elections in the Bangsamoro Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao (BARMM) to September 2026.

The committees on suffrage and electoral reforms and appropriations filed the bill last March 2. The Senate had already approved a counterpart measure on March 3.

The bill resets the election date to the second Monday of September 2026 (September 14, in this case) and every three years after. Election officials will assume office by December 1, according to the bill.

Independent watchdogs have warned that repeated delays to the polls may only result in more bloodshed and sow distrust that may undo the gains of the Bangsamoro peace process.

The parliamentary polls in the region were originally scheduled in 2022, synchronized with the national elections. It had been repeatedly delayed due to Sulu’s exclusion from the region in 2024 and the Supreme Court ruling districting laws unconstitutional.

The proposed election date is way beyond the initial Supreme Court deadline for the polls to be conducted not later than March 31, 2026. – Rappler.com

The post HOT MOMENTS: FOMC Statement Released Following the Fed Interest Rate Decision – Here Are All the Details of the Full Text appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. The Fed has resumed interest rate cuts after a nine-month hiatus, lowering the federal funds rate by 25 basis points to a range of 4% to 4.25%. According to the “dot plot” projection reflected in the decision text, two additional interest rate cuts are envisaged in 2025. While 9 out of 19 officials expected two more interest rate cuts this year, 2 predicted a single cut, and 6 predicted no additional cuts. Newly appointed Fed Board member Stephen I. Miran dissented from the decision, voting for a stronger 50 basis point cut. The decision noted that economic growth slowed in the first half of the year, employment growth slowed, and the unemployment rate rose slightly. It also noted that inflation had begun to rise but remained high. While reiterating that it maintains its long-term targets of maximum employment and 2% inflation, the Fed noted that uncertainties regarding the economic outlook remain high. The statement read, “The Committee assesses that downside risks to employment have increased, in line with the balance of risks.” The statement stated that interest rate policy will be reshaped in the coming period, taking into account future data, the economic outlook, and the balance of risks. It also noted that the reduction in holdings of Treasury bonds, corporate debt instruments, and mortgage-backed securities will continue. The resolution was supported by Fed Chair Jerome Powell, Vice Chair John C. Williams, and board members Michael S. Barr, Michelle W. Bowman, Susan M. Collins, Lisa D. Cook, Austan D. Goolsbee, Philip N. Jefferson, Alberto G. Musalem, Jeffrey R. Schmid, and Christopher J. Waller. *This is not investment advice.
