My heart is heavy and my mind a mess. I have never been this unsure about things in a long long time. I can not stress how important it is to so so many that we keep abs cbn standing proud alone side all the other proud networks that make this country the envy of the world. I love this country. I trust and pray the lawmakers make the right decision that will be a win win for all concerned and not just for a selected few. Millions love abs cbn. A few don’t. If you do the math …. with humility and respect , pls say yes to the franchise and let’s all get back to more important issues like battling this annoying virus. Pls! 🙏🙏🙏💋💋💋💚💙❤️ #kapamilyaforever

Mahal ko po ang ABS-CBN. This company has been my home network for 13 years. It has recognized my talent, believed in it when only a few people did, gave it not just a chance but a home. It is a home and livelihood to me, my 11071 co-employees and families. ABS-CBN has been a part of millions of Filipino households for over 50 years through its news, entertainment and charity works. Despite the threat of it’s closure, it still has managed to help Filipinos in need these past months, as it always has. This is why it’s fate has become nothing short of a national issue. As such, it has also become a distraction from what should be undivided focus and efforts towards survival and eventual recovery from the devastating COVID pandemic. Worse, the implementation of the cease and desist orders issued by the authorities (who were appointed, not elected) in particular added to the agony and uncertainty that ABS-CBN employees have been experiencing together with all Filipinos around the world. ABS- CBN is not perfect, but neither is it broken beyond repair. It promises to fix and reform its past shortcomings and I can attest they have already been trying to do so these past years. The livelihood of 11,071 Filipinos and their families is at stake. To our congress who holds our fate in your hands, I humbly ask you to grant ABS-CBN its franchise I believe ABS-CBN deserves it. No matter what, I stand with ABS-CBN as it has stood by me all these years. This is our home, the home of 11,071 hardworking tax paying filipinos who cherish and love their jobs. Ipinagmamalaki ko pong ako ay isang Kapamilya, sa hirap man o sa ginhawa. Laban, Kapamilya! #labankapamilya #ibalikangabscbn

I received what was probably one of the most heart breaking text messages from one of our leaders in ABS-CBN. The little fan girl in me is probably crying so hard right now. I grew up watching the kapamilya channel and almost all of their telseryes.

I will forever be grateful towards this company, who has instilled values in me through their programs and gave me the opportunity to inspire those who watch and support my projects.

— Liza Soberano (@lizasoberano) July 3, 2020

To all of my loving supporters, if it’s not too much to ask, and if ABS-CBN has ever positively impacted you in one way or another, I humbly ask that you please pray for the company and all of its employees.

To the congressmen and women who are tasked to decide upon our franchise renewal, please, open up your hearts and hear our voices. ABS-CBN has always and will always be in service of the filipino people. #kapamilyaforever #IbalikAngABSCBN

This coming week, the final verdict of the congress on the ABS-CBN franchise renewal will be determined.

The fate of the ABS-CBN, whether they will or will not be granted a new franchise, lies upon the decision of the 91 members of the Joint Committee for Legislative Franchises and Good Governance and Public Accountability.
