Veteran lawmaker Cavite Rep. Elpidio Barzaga Jr. urged congressional leaders to 'observe parliamentary courtesy' and stop an embarrassing word war over the House of Representatives' push to purportedly amend economic provisions in the constitution.'There is a word war between the Senate President and the House, which is embarrassing. We are veteran legislators. Whatever differences in opinion we have should be settled privately,' the 72-year-old Barzaga said in a statement on Saturday. The representative, who has had four terms in the House and also four terms as Dasmariñas City mayor, said lawmakers should 'observe parliamentary courtesy' even when they have differing opinions.
