 2. In your own understanding, what is the impact of the law to you personally?

R.A. 1425 or the Rizal law was implemented to every institution, mostly in schools and for every students.
Personally, the impact of the said law is positively influenced me to study more about our national hero since the main
purpose of this law is to give every student an opportunity to study the life of Jose Rizal with his books and works. Aside
from that, the said law conveys an additional knowledge for me how it passes from bill to law, the process it underwent,
and the issues and controversies while the hearings and debates begun. Overall, R.A. 1425 or the Rizal law can be
difficult but also entertaining. It doesn’t let only lets me know technical things about the law but it also lets me be more
knowledgeable to that person who helped freed the Philippines from captivity which is Dr. Jose Rizal.
