Under the <a href="/wiki/Philippine_Organic_Act" class="mw-redirect" title="Philippine Organic Act">Philippine Organic Act</a>, from 1907 to 1916, the <a href="/wiki/Philippine_Commission" title="Philippine Commission">Philippine Commission</a> headed by the <a href="/wiki/Governor-general_of_the_Philippines" class="mw-redirect" title="Governor-general of the Philippines">governor-general of the Philippines</a> served as the upper chamber of the <a href="/wiki/Philippine_Legislature" title="Philippine Legislature">Philippine Legislature</a>, with the <a href="/wiki/Philippine_Assembly" title="Philippine Assembly">Philippine Assembly</a> as the elected <a href="/wiki/Lower_house" title="Lower house">lower house</a>. At the same time the governor-general also exercised executive powers. </p><p>In August 1916 the <a href="/wiki/United_States_Congress" title="United States Congress">United States Congress</a> enacted the <a href="/wiki/Philippine_Autonomy_Act" class="mw-redirect" title="Philippine Autonomy Act">Philippine Autonomy Act</a> or popularly known as the "Jones Law", which created an elected bicameral <a href="/wiki/Philippine_Legislature" title="Philippine Legislature">Philippine Legislature</a> with the Senate as the <a href="/wiki/Upper_chamber" class="mw-redirect" title="Upper chamber">upper chamber</a> and with the <a href="/wiki/House_of_Representatives_of_the_Philippines" title="House of Representatives of the Philippines">House of Representatives of the Philippines</a>, previously called the Philippine Assembly, as the <a href="/wiki/Lower_chamber" class="mw-redirect" title="Lower chamber">lower chamber</a>. The governor-general continued to be the head of the <a href="/wiki/Executive_branch" class="mw-redirect" title="Executive branch">executive branch</a> of the Insular Government. Senators then were elected via <a href="/wiki/Senatorial_districts_of_the_Philippines" title="Senatorial districts of the Philippines">senatorial districts</a> via <a href="/wiki/Plurality-at-large_voting" class="mw-redirect" title="Plurality-at-large voting">plurality-at-large voting</a>; each district grouped several provinces and each elected two senators except for "non-Christian" provinces where the governor-general of the Philippines appointed the senators for the district. </p><p>Future president <a href="/wiki/Manuel_L._Quezon" title="Manuel L.

Quezon</a>, who was then <a href="/wiki/Philippine_Resident_Commissioner" class="mw-redirect" title="Philippine Resident Commissioner">Philippine Resident Commissioner</a>, encouraged future president <a href="/wiki/Sergio_Osme%C3%B1a" title="Sergio Osmeña">Sergio Osmeña</a>, then <a href="/wiki/Speaker_(politics)" title="Speaker (politics)">Speaker</a> of the House, to run for the leadership of the Senate, but Osmeña preferred to continue leading the lower house. Quezon then ran for the Senate and became <a href="/wiki/Senate_President" class="mw-redirect" title="Senate President">Senate President</a> serving for 19 years (1916–1935). </p><p>This setup continued until 1935, when the <a href="/wiki/Philippine_Independence_Act" class="mw-redirect" title="Philippine Independence Act">Philippine Independence Act</a> or the "Tydings–McDuffie Act" was passed by the <a href="/wiki/U.S._Congress" class="mw-redirect" title="U.S. Congress">U.S. Congress</a> which granted the Filipinos the right to frame their own constitution in preparation for their independence, wherein they established a unicameral <a href="/wiki/National_Assembly_of_the_Philippines" title="National Assembly of the Philippines">National Assembly of the Philippines</a>, effectively abolishing the Senate. Not long after the adoption of the 1935 Constitution several amendments began to be proposed. By 1938, the National Assembly began consideration of these proposals, which included restoring the Senate as the upper chamber of Congress. The amendment of the 1935 Constitution to have a bicameral legislature was approved in 1940 and the <a href="/wiki/1941_Philippine_Senate_election" title="1941 Philippine Senate election">first biennial elections</a> for the restored upper house was held in November 1941. Instead of the old senatorial districts, senators were elected via the entire country serving as an <a href="/wiki/At-large" title="At-large">at-large</a> district, although still under plurality-at-large voting, with voters voting up to eight candidates, and the eight candidates with the highest number of votes being elected. While the Senate from 1916 to 1935 had exclusive confirmation rights over executive appointments, as part of the compromises that restored the Senate in 1941, the power of confirming executive appointments has been exercised by a joint <a href="/wiki/Commission_on_Appointments_(Philippines)" class="mw-redirect" title="Commission on Appointments (Philippines)">Commission on Appointments</a> composed of members of both houses. However, the Senate since its restoration and the independence of the Philippines in 1946 has the power to ratify treaties. </p><p>The Senate finally convened in 1945 and served as the upper chamber of Congress from thereon until the declaration of <a href="/wiki/Martial_law" title="Martial law">martial law</a> by President <a href="/wiki/Ferdinand_Marcos" title="Ferdinand Marcos">Ferdinand Marcos</a> in 1972, which shut down Congress. The Senate was resurrected in 1987 upon the ratification of the <a href="/wiki/Constitution_of_the_Philippines" title="Constitution of the Philippines">1987 Constitution</a>. However, instead of eight senators being replaced after every election, it was changed to twelve. </p><p>In the Senate, the officers are the <a href="/wiki/President_of_the_Senate_of_the_Philippines" title="President of the Senate of the Philippines">Senate president</a>, <a href="/wiki/President_pro_tempore_of_the_Senate_of_the_Philippines" title="President pro tempore of the Senate of the Philippines">Senate president <i>pro tempore</i></a>, <a href="/wiki/Majority_leader_of_the_Senate_of_the_Philippines" class="mw-redirect" title="Majority leader of the Senate of the Philippines">majority floor leader</a>, <a href="/wiki/Minority_leader_of_the_Senate_of_the_Philippines" class="mw-redirect" title="Minority leader of the Senate of the Philippines">minority floor leader</a> and the Senate secretary and the Senate sergeant at arms who are elected by the senators from among the employees and staff of the Senate.
