Aurelio Umali

Aurelio Matias Umali (born January 25, 1966) is a Filipino politician and lawyer from the third district of Nueva Ecija, Philippines.

[4] Prior to his entry in politics in 2001, Umali served as Deputy Commissioner of the National Telecommunications Commission.

He had his attempt to come back as a Congressman of the province's 3rd district but lost to neophyte politician Rosanna "Ria" Vergara.

Umali's P15-million PDAF was meant to buy irrigation pumps and fertilizers for his constituents in Laur, Gabaldon, Bongabon, Santa Rosa, General Mamerto Natividad, and Cabanatuan.

[7] In 2024, the office of Ombudsman Samuel Martires in a five-page Order dated May 10, directed the six months preventive suspension without pay of Umali.

It also directed DILG Secretary Benhur Abalos to implement the “immediately executory” suspension, which originated from a complaint of Roberto Duldulao regarding the alleged issuance of 205 permits for sand and gravel extraction to illegal quarries in Nueva Ecija in violation of Republic Act 7942 or the Philippine Mining Act.
