Senate needs to convene as impeachment court forthwith

“That is not the discretion of the Senate, as if it is giving to the plenary to decide whether they will fulfill their constitutional mandate or not. The Senate plenary is not supreme over the Constitution, and it is not up to the Senate on whether or not they will convene as an impeachment court.” – BAYAN MUNA chairperson Atty. Neri Colmenares
