Batangas 1st District Rep. Leandro Leviste says that the protest of his constituents will continue until his demand of decreasing the value added tax from 12 percent to 10 percent is met through a vote at the House of Representatives. Leviste also called on the Commission on Appointments to delay the confirmation of acting officials, including Executive Secretary Ralph Recto, whom Leviste accused of blocking his push to decrease the VAT.
