By The impeachment trial of Vice President Sara Duterte may begin on August 4, 2025, or a week after the 20th Congress opens, according to Senator Joel Villanueva.
“If SONA (State of the Nation Address) is (July) 28, so you’re looking at the week after, August 4. We’re looking at August 4 to convene,” Villanueva said at the Kapihan sa Manila Bay forum on Wednesday.
Villanueva was referring to the fourth SONA of President Ferdinand Marcos, Jr., which will happen after the House and the Senate open their first regular session at 10 am on July 28.
