A total of 54 representatives voted against the reimposition of the death penalty, on Tuesday's session at the House of Representatives.

House Bill 4727 was approved on third and final reading with 217 voting for the bill and 54 voting against it.

Cebu City 2nd District Rep. Rodrigo Abellanosa declined to specify a vote regarding the measure.

Among the prominent lawmakers who voted against the bill were Deputy Speaker and Pampanga Rep. Gloria Macapagal Arroyo, Ilocos Norte Rep. Imelda Marcos, Batangas Rep. Vilma Santos-Recto, members of the leftist Makabayan bloc, and those from the Liberal Party.

Among those who voted "no," Arroyo, Santos-Recto, Reps. Emmy de Jesus, Carlos Zarate, Antonio Tinio, Kit Belmonte, Kaka Bag-ao, and Josephine Ramirez Sato hold leadership positions.

They now stand to possibly lose their posts, as House Speaker Pantaleon Alvarez said that they will crack the whip on House leaders who will not vote for capital punishment, which is supported by President Rodrigo Duterte.

Here is the list of lawmakers who voted against the bill:

  • Abaya, Francis Gerald
