Uniting for Local Autonomy, Converging National and Local Growth

The Union of Local Authorities of the Philippines (ULAP) is the umbrella organization of all leagues of local government units (LGUs) and locally elected government officials, and was formed in 1998, registered in 1999, and further endorsed through Executive Order 35, series of 2004.

Prior to its creation, ULAP was called the "League of Leagues", which played an important convening role for the local governments to lobby and develop the Local Government Code of 1991. ULAP was created to convene and represent its member leagues and local governments to national and sub-national policy and program committees in continuous pursuit of strengthening and capacitating LGUs for local autonomy and good governance.

ULAP Resolution No. 2018-11 : A resolution expressing the sincere appreciation and deep gratitude of the Union of Local Authorities of the Philippines (ULAP) to incumbent Batangas Governor Hermilando Mandanas, the late Bataan 2nd District Representative Enrique “Tet” Garcia, Jr., incumbent Bataan 2nd District Representative Jose Enrique Garcia III, and other petitioners in the cases “Congressman Hermilando I. Mandanas, et. Al. VS. Executive Secretary Paquito N. Ochoa, Jr., et. al.” (G.R. No. 199802) and “Hon. Enrique T. Garcia, Jr., VS> Hon. Paquito N. Ochoa, Jr. et. al.” (G.R. No. 208488) for courageously initiating and steadfastly enduring the legal battle that led to the Supreme Court landmark decision ordering the inclusion of all collections of National Taxes in the computation of the base of the just share of the Local Government Units (LGUs)
