Guido Girardi Lavín (born 24 January 1961) is a Chilean doctor and politician. He was a senator in district no. 7 for Santiago Poniente.[1] He previously served as the president of that chamber.
He usually takes progressive stances on social issues, such as defense of the environment and a critical stance against private healthcare.[2][3][4]
He has also been involved in several controversies in Chile.[5][6] He agitated a legal and social polemic for filing a complaint in November 2008 against two police officers who allegedly "disrespected" the senator while writing him a speeding ticket. Both officers were retired from the police.[5] He had used false bills from a nonexistent company, Publicam, in order to justify his campaign expenses to the Servicio de Impuestos Internos (Internal Tax Service).[7]
