MANILA — Kathryn Bernardo, Nadine Lustre, and Liza Soberano are among the high-profile stars lending their voice to a campaign against the anti-terrorism bill being pushed by the Duterte administration.

The actresses — among the most visible and widely followed Filipino personalities on social media — each posted about the Anti-Terrorism Act of 2020.

• Why tough new anti-terror bill strikes fear—even to non-terrorists

Its proposed sweeping powers, including warrantless arrests and wiretapping of suspected terrorists, have alarmed rights groups, who fear even legitimate dissent against the administration may be targeted.

"Please do not take away our voices, our basic human rights!" Soberano tweeted on Wednesday, linking to an information page about the measure and a petition against it.

Please do not take away our voices our basic human rights!!!!
