Our laws have been called either a Republic Act, Act, Commonwealth Act, Presidential Decree, or Batas Pambansa depending on when in our history the law was passed, or more accurately, what was the legislative body that passed it. As discussed before, Marcos, when he wielded legislative power, enacted his Presidential Decrees. During the time of the Batasan, laws were called Batas Pambansa (such as the very famous BP22 our "Bouncing Checks Law"). During the American time, our laws were either Acts or Commonwealth Acts.
