Congressional career (2023–present)
[edit]2022 special election
[edit]On May 23, 2022, his father, Jesus Crispin, was offered the position of Secretary of Justice under the incoming administration of then-president-elect Bongbong Marcos.[4] He accepted the position, resigning his rights to the seat before his second consecutive term as a representative began in order to assume the office, thereby triggering a special election for his seat.[5] As the son of the previous congressman, the younger Remulla was seen as the favorite to win the election.
