The founder's father, Reynaldo Sr. filled the sole seat won by ANGAT.[5]For the 19th Congress, Tamayor Sr. filed several bills as ANGAT's representative including proposals to impose logging and mining bans in Cagayan de Oro. He did not sign the impeachment complaint against Vice President Sara Duterte. He died in office on June 21, 2025, a few days before the end of the Congress.[6][7]
ANGAT campaigned to retain its place in the lower house, participating in the 2025 election.[8][9] The nominees include members of the Tamayo family including first nominee, Ghizelle Tamayo-Jimenea. Tamayo Sr. who later died in office was listed as a fourth nominee, while his wife Milagros is the seventh nominee. Reynaldo Jr. is the president of the ruling party Partido Federal ng Pilipinas of Marcos Jr. at around this time.[4] ANGAT failed to retain their seat.[10]
