Oct 30 2020 11:15 AMMANILA - Sen. Risa Hontiveros on Thursday said a bill seeking to give the LGBT community more rights and protection under the law has yet to hurdle the committee level due to lack of signatures.The committee report for the Sexual Orientation or Gender Identity or Expression (SOGIE) bill has not received enough support from senators over a year since it was refiled in the chamber, said Hontiveros, who chairs the Senate Committee on Women, Children, Family Relations and Gender Equality."Although the SOGIE Equality Bill Committee Report still lacks signatures to report it out on the floor, it is never less important," she said in a tweet.If passed into law, the SOGIE bill will entitle same-sex couples to rights enjoyed by.
