Mars, Kabataan Party-list Rep. Renée Co used the House budget hearing on September 8, 2025 to question continued funding for the Barangay Development Program (BDP), tying her call to “red-tagging” concerns and citing critiques of the NTF-ELCAC.


DILG Secretary Jonvic Remulla firmly defended the budget hike, explaining that President Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr. personally called for the full P10-million allocation for each of the 780 barangays cleared of communist insurgency.
