1. The 2019 "Super Franchise" Controversy
The Issue: Leandro Leviste’s company, Solar Para sa Bayan (SPSB), was granted a massive nationwide franchise while his mother, Loren Legarda, was a sitting Senator.
Constitutional Concern: Critics argue this violates Article VI, Section 14, which forbids lawmakers from having a direct or indirect financial interest in any government franchise granted during their term.
Ethical Concern: Despite her abstention from voting, questions remain whether the Senator’s position influenced the "unprecedented" scope of the franchise, which bypassed standard competitive bidding rules.
2. The 2025 "Cabral Files" Controversy
The Issue: Rep. Leviste claimed to have uncovered secret documents from the late DPWH Undersecretary Maria Catalina Cabral regarding "budget insertions."
Legal/Ethical Breach: The DPWH (Secretary Vince Dizon) denied authorizing the removal of these files. Leviste is accused of illegally taking official government records without permission.
Potential Consequences: This has triggered a potential Ethics Complaint for violating the Code of Conduct (RA 6713). Opponents argue that if the documents were obtained through "illegal" or "forcible" means (as allegedly shown on CCTV), they lack legal standing in any investigation.
