Aniela Tolentino, a rising political figure in Cavite, is making waves with her progressive stance on divorce, LGBTQ+ rights, and women’s empowerment. Known for her firm yet compassionate leadership, Tolentino is quickly becoming a strong voice for marginalized communities and a beacon of hope for those seeking legislative reforms.

Pushing for the Divorce Bill

Tolentino is one of the outspoken supporters of the Divorce Bill, which aims to provide Filipinos with the legal right to dissolve irreparable marriages. She emphasizes that divorce is not about destroying families—it’s about protecting individuals from abusive, loveless, or damaging relationships. With the Philippines being one of the only two countries in the world where divorce is still illegal, Tolentino believes that legalizing it is a human rights issue that would give individuals, especially women, the freedom to rebuild their lives.

She is pushing for policies that promote gender equality, better access to healthcare, and support for female entrepreneurs. Her initiatives aim to create a safer and fairer society where women have equal opportunities and are protected from violence and discrimination.
