Election watchdog Kontra Daya tagged TGP on its list of party-list groups that do not serve marginalized groups and have links to political dynasties, big business, or the police or the military, or have corruption cases, since TGP's second nominee in 2025 is allegedly the president Teravera Corporation, which is allegedly a contractor for the Department of Public Works and Highways.[1]
History
Talino at Galing ng Pinoy first secured party-list representation in the House of Representatives through the 2019 elections.[2]
TGP is associated with the Teves family from Catanduanes (distinct from the similar family from Negros island) with Bong Teves as the group's sole representative in the House of Representatives during the 19th Congress.[3][4][5]
TGP will seek to at least retain its seat in the 2025 election.[6]
