President Marcos, who was PFP's standard-bearer during the 2022 national elections, welcomed the new members of their party.&nbsp;
"We are attempting to transform the government, to transform the bureaucracy, to transform even the thinking of ordinary Filipino citizens and our politicians. Ibahin natin ang pag-iisip para naman ay makaramdam naman &lsquo;yung ating mga kababayan ng pagbabago na talagang ang pamahalaan ay nandiyan para tulungan sila," Marcos said.&nbsp;
Formed in 2018, the Partido Federal ng Pilipinas is a national political party in the Philippines chaired by President Marcos. The party is pushing for federalism in the Philippines.
During the run-up to the 2022 national election, the UniTeam Alliance was formed by the PFP, Lakas-CMD, Hugpong ng Pagbabago (HNP), and Partido ng Masang Pilipino (PMP), with guest candidates from other parties.
