President of the Chamber of Deputies (Mexico)

The president of the Chamber of Deputies (Spanish: Presidente de la Cámara de Diputados) is the presiding officer of the Chamber of Deputies of Mexico. This position is analogous to the speaker of the House in other legislatures. The current president is deputy Raúl Bolaños Cacho Cué. The president is elected for a one-year term.

One of the main characteristics of the position is assuming the role of president of the Congress of the Union during joint-sessions of General Congress, including: the ceremonial opening of ordinary (and extraordinary) legislative periods, the inaugural ceremony of the president of Mexico where this presiding officer receives the presidential sash from the outgoing president to deliver it to the incoming president, and the reception of the Mexican president's yearly government report at the beginning of every legislative year (traditionally a speech to Congress, but also delivered in writing without the president's attendance since 2007) as well as delivering the official response (contestación) to the speech on behalf of Congress.
