In this role, he oversees legislation related to pre-school, elementary, secondary education, teachers' and students' welfare, non-formal education, national language, libraries, museums, and Filipino cultural preservation. Previously, during his earlier terms, Romulo chaired the Committee on Higher and Technical Education, focusing on post-secondary advancements. As co-chairperson of the Second Congressional Commission on Education (EDCOM2), Romulo has advocated for systemic reforms to address foundational weaknesses in the Philippine education system, including enhanced and adequate instructional materials. He has criticized the K-12 program's implementation, aligning with President Jr.'s assessments, and proposed either its removal or substantial reform to improve learning outcomes amid declining rates. Romulo suggested reducing the number of subjects in from 31 to eight core areas until functional is restored, emphasizing pragmatic prioritization over expanded curriculum. Under his committee leadership, Romulo sponsored House bills advancing education reforms, such as allowing Grade 10 students to select from two academic pathways rather than rigid tracks, aiming to provide credits eligible for and vocational pursuits. He also filed amending the Adopt-a-School Act to extend partnerships for , technical-vocational, and higher education infrastructure. Additionally, Romulo supported creating a Cabinet Cluster on to streamline oversight and coordination across agencies. These initiatives reflect his focus on evidence-based adjustments, including transferring redundant subjects to senior high school to potentially shorten duration by one semester.

Infrastructure and local development efforts

Romulo has focused on addressing Pasig City's chronic flooding issues through advocacy for flood control infrastructure, leveraging his position to recommend budget allocations in the national budget for district-specific projects. As a representative, he has emphasized the role of congressional "insertions" to fund such initiatives, describing it as a core duty to prioritize local needs like drainage improvements and creek rehabilitation. In October 2025, Romulo joined Mayor and (MMDA) officials to inspect and support the cleaning of a canal aimed at preventing flooding, highlighting collaborative efforts between local and national agencies. On the same date, he participated in an on-site assessment of the Ilugin Creek in Pinagbuhatan, where observations included overgrowth of water hyacinths impeding flow, underscoring the need for ongoing maintenance and structural enhancements to waterways. Earlier in February 2025, Romulo was involved in the inauguration of multiple Department of Public Works and Highways (DPWH) infrastructure projects in , contributing to enhanced connectivity and resilience in the locality through roads and related developments funded via national resources. These efforts align with broader local development goals, including support for urban modernization projects like the new Pasig City Hall construction, which began in October 2025 at a of P9 billion to consolidate government services and improve administrative efficiency.

Anti-corruption and transparency measures

Romulo co-authored House Bill No. 7, "An Act Promoting Transparent Governance and Instituting Anti-Corruption Measures Through the Establishment of a National Asset Disclosure and Conflict of Interest Program," introduced in the 20th Congress and read on first reading on July 29, 2025, aiming to enhance public officials' asset disclosures and mitigate conflicts of interest to curb graft. He also co-authored House Bill No. 1288 in the 16th Congress, seeking to amend Section 3 of Republic Act No. 3019 (Anti-Graft and Corrupt Practices Act) to strengthen penalties and accountability for corrupt acts by government auditors and officials. In September 2025, amid accusations of involvement in kickbacks related to flood control projects in Pasig City, Romulo publicly committed to releasing his Statement of Assets, Liabilities, and (SALN) and signing a waiver to demonstrate transparency and refute the claims, stating he would submit these documents upon summons by investigative bodies. He simultaneously announced preparations to file legal cases against the contractors leveling the allegations, Curlee and Discaya, emphasizing his denial of any wrongdoing. This stance aligned with broader calls in Philippine politics for mandatory waivers to bolster accountability, though implementation remains voluntary absent legislative mandate.

Controversies and criticisms

In September 2025, contractors Pacifico "Curlee" Discaya and his wife Sarah alleged that Pasig Representative Roman Romulo was among 17 members who demanded kickbacks—typically 10-20% of contract values—from their family's construction firms for Department of and Highways (DPWH) flood control projects in City and surrounding areas. The Discayas claimed these demands were made during project implementations dating back several years, with Curlee Discaya testifying under oath before the House committee on , positioning themselves as potential state witnesses in broader graft probes involving over ₱10 billion in questionable contracts. Romulo categorically denied the accusations on September 8, 2025, labeling them "" and asserting he had never met or transacted with Curlee Discaya, while noting that even Discaya admitted in testimony to no direct personal interaction. He attributed the claims to political retaliation, linking them to his opposition against Discaya's unsuccessful 2025 mayoral bid in , where her campaign had accused local officials of corruption in similar projects. In response, Romulo announced plans to file perjury and other criminal charges against the Discayas, challenging them to provide verifiable evidence such as documents or witnesses, and committed to publicly releasing his Statements of Assets, Liabilities, and Net Worth (SALNs) from relevant years while waiving his bank secrecy to demonstrate no unexplained wealth. As of October 2025, no formal charges have been filed against Romulo by authorities, and the allegations remain unproven amid ongoing House investigations into the Discayas' contracts, which have drawn scrutiny for delays and cost overruns in flood mitigation efforts.

Political dynasty critiques and defenses

Roman Romulo, son of former Senator and Albert F. Romulo and grandson of diplomat , represents a continuation of the family's longstanding involvement in Philippine spanning , , and executive roles since the mid-20th century. While the Romulo clan's national prominence has not translated into multi-generational control of a single locality like many provincial dynasties, critics argue that Romulo's entry into politics in 2019—replacing the Eusebio family's 27-year dominance—merely substituted one form of familial influence for another, potentially undermining merit-based representation in a system where dynasties control over 70% of elective positions nationwide. Specific critiques of Romulo's dynastic ties have surfaced in local discourse, particularly concerns over impartiality and favoritism linked to his 's historical networks, though these often intersect with unrelated allegations rather than standalone dynasty indictments. Broader empirical studies reinforce such wariness, finding that correlate with reduced public goods provision, higher rates, and diminished in affected areas, attributing this to reduced electoral and entrenched over competence. In , apprehensions intensified with the 2021 candidacy of Simon Tantoco, a Romulo scion, for city councilor, raising fears of expanding familial foothold despite the position's relatively junior status. Defenders, including Romulo's allies, counter that his political record stems from personal expertise as a and educator—evidenced by authorship of the K-12 and chairmanship of the House education —rather than inherited entitlement, distinguishing the Romulos' service-oriented legacy from extractive local clans. Tantoco himself emphasized no familial pressure to perpetuate politics or intent to build a dynasty, framing participation as voluntary public contribution amid the 2019 anti-Eusebio wave that positioned Romulo as a reformer. Proponents further note the absence of simultaneous Romulo relatives holding multiple seats, contrasting with "obese" dynasties seeking five or more positions in 2025 elections, and highlight Romulo's endorsements from anti-dynasty figures like in 2019 as validation of cross-clan appeal over nepotism.

Personal life

Family and marital status

Romulo married Shalani Carla Soledad, a former Valenzuela City councilor and television host, on , 2012, at St. Benedict Church in Ayala Westgrove Heights, . The couple, who became engaged in 2011, has publicly discussed efforts to conceive children, including treatments, but as of 2017 remained childless. He is the son of , a former Philippine senator, budget secretary, and foreign affairs secretary, and Rosie Lovely Tecson-Romulo. Romulo grew up as one of five siblings in a family with deep ties to Philippine public service; his sister served as secretary of from 2016 to 2022. The Romulo lineage traces further to notable figures, including grand-uncle , who presided over the .

Public persona and affiliations

Roman Romulo maintains a public persona centered on professional integrity and legislative diligence, often emphasizing transparency and accountability in governance. As a lawyer and economist educated at the University of the Philippines, he has positioned himself as a reform-oriented legislator, particularly in education policy, while responding to criticisms by offering to disclose his Statement of Assets, Liabilities, and Net Worth (SALN) and waive bank secrecy rights. His alliance with Pasig Mayor Vico Sotto in the 2019 elections, which ended a long-standing political dynasty, reinforced his image as a candidate for change among local voters.
