    Elected Senator in 1967, he authored the Five “Justice for the Poor” laws, also called “Laurel Laws”, nine laws on Judicial Reforms, the Government Reorganization Act, and the amendment to the Land Reform Code. Doy Laurel became an Assemblyman in the Batasang Pambansa in 1978. He held the distinction of being the only Member of Parliament who resigned on September 16, 1983 in open protest against the assassination of Senator Benigno S. Aquino, Jr.
