Sen. Bam congratulates Sen. Leila De Lima on Human Rights Award

My warmest congratulations to Senator Leila de Lima for receiving the distinction of being the "Most Distinguished Human Rights Defender" in the 2018 Ignite for Human Rights Award.

In her fight to uphold the rights of every Filipino, she talked truth to power and paid with her freedom.

Even from behind bars, she continues to share her voice to defend justice, democracy and the Filipino people.

Sa kabila ng mga pagsubok na kanyang kinakaharap, mananatiling matibay na sandalan at tagapagtanggol ng mga Pilipino si Sen. Leila De Lima.
