History

Mamayang Liberal (ML) was formed as the sectoral organization of the Liberal Party to cater to marginalized groups. ML ran for the 2025 elections as a partylist organization largely relying on the supporter base of Liberal and former 2022 presidential candidate Leni Robredo.^[1] It received accreditation as a regional sectoral organization from the Commission on Elections (COMELEC) in July 2024.^[2]

ML has listed former senator Leila de Lima as their first nominee.^[3][4] Aside from advancing the interest of various marginalized sectors, ML pledged to reform the partylist system if they win a seat.^[5][6]

Sectors represented

ML names workers, farmers, fisherfolk, indigenous peoples, urban poor, women, youth, professionals, and members of the LGBTQ community as the sectors they represent.^[2]
