Pansamantalang itinigil ng pro-administration at opposition solons ang bangayan sa pulitika upang bigyan daan ang pag-apruba sa mahalagang piraso ng papel na nagkakaloob ng parangal at pagkilala kay two gold medalist 2024 Paris Olympics gymnast achiever Carlos Edriel Yulo.

Nagkasundo ang mga mambabatas ng administrasyon at oposisyon na i-adopt ang House Resolution 1864 na inihain ni House Speaker at Leyte 1st District Representative Ferdinand Martin Romualdez upang gawaran ng House citation si Yulo.

Ang Congressional Medal of Excellence ay pinakamataas na parangal na ibinibigay sa Filipino achievers sa larangan ng palakasan, Negosyo, medisina, siyensiya, sining at kultura.

“Caloy Yulo is truly one of the greatest Filipino athletes of all time, earning the country not only one but two gold medals in the Olympics. His victory is the triumph of each and every Filipino, since this is truly an honor in the international community for the Philippines,” pahayag ni Romualdez.

Maliban sa igagawad na Congressional Medal of Excellence pagdating ni Yulo sa bansa, nakapaloob sa HR 1864 ang pagbati sa bagong bayani ng Pilipinas matapos magwagi ng dalawang gintong medalya sa men’s artistic gymnastics floor exercise at men’s vault apparatus sa 2024 Paris Summer Olympics na ginaganap sa Bercy Arena, Paris, France.

“It is such an extraordinary feat that should be emulated by all of us. We may not all be Olympic material, but it was Caloy Yulo who taught us the value of persistent hard work, sheer grit and so much discipline in achieving our goals, not just for ourselves but for the country as well,” ayon sa House Chief.

“Fondly called Caloy by his family and friends, he redeemed a remarkable victory and captured the gold medal in the floor exercise with a historic score of 15.000 points, dethroning Tokyo Olympic champion Artem Dolgopyat of Israel and besting Jake Jarman of Great Britain,” nakasaad sa resolusyon.

“The stellar routine performance of Carlos Edriel Yulo in the final vault events with a total score of 15.116 overtook Armenia’s Artur Davtyan and Great Britain’s Harry Hepworth,” ayon pa sa resolusyon.

“For his remarkable victory and exceptional performances at the 2024 Paris Summer Olympics that brought great honor and glory to the country while showcasing the magnanimity of a Filipino athlete, Carlos Edriel P. Yulo deserves utmost recognition and commendation,” dagdag na nilalaman ng resolusyon.
