Career
Before running for public office, Marcos worked as a member of the legislative staff of House majority leader and representative Martin Romualdez, his father's cousin, whom he sees as his mentor.[11]
In 2021, before joining the legislative staff of House Majority Leaders, he worked as a consultant for his cousin, Ilocos Norte Governor Matthew Manotoc. His responsibilities included overseeing the efficient distribution of assistance to the people of Ilocos Norte, such as food packs, fishing gear for fishermen, tablets for remote learning, and a COVID recovery assistance program for sari-sari store owners.[12]
Despite being a neophyte congressman, he was elected House senior deputy majority leader in the 19th Congress on July 26, 2022.[16][17]
In late November 2022, Marcos, together with his uncle, House Speaker Martin Romualdez, filed House Bill No. 6398, also known as the Maharlika Investment Fund, which aimed to create a sovereign wealth fund for the Philippines. The legislation drew inspiration from South Korea's own sovereign wealth fund.[18][19] The MIF was approved by the House of Representatives on December 12, 2022.[20] Economist Michael Batu said the bill can help raise money to help the government's programs and achieve development goals, if managed properly.[21]
In February 2025, Marcos was the first to sign the fourth impeachment complaint against Vice President Sara Duterte at the House of Representatives, which ultimately gathered 240 signatures in Congress.[22][23][24]
