If you were legally married in the Philippines, he is breaking the law if he got married again without first obtaining a divorce. For this he could go to jail.

According to US law his marriage in the U.S. would be considered void. You cannot be married to two women at the same time.

No, if you are married anywhere in the world you must get divorced before you remarry in order to avoid being guilty of bigamy.

He cannot marry again legally, that is bigamy and a crime. You can bring your action and complaint where you are, or where he is.
