Jaime César Naranjo Ortíz (born 12 September 1951) is a Chilean politician, militant from Socialist Party (PS).

An opponent of the second government of Sebastián Piñera (2018−2022), on 8 November 2021, he conducted a filibuster in favor to impeach Piñera,[1][2] operation which needed the vote of Giorgio Jackson[3][4] to reach the necessary 78 votes for the initiative to pass to the Senate.[5][6] In that way, Jackson arrived to the National Congress in Valparaíso around 01:25 AM,[7] moment which he quickly voted.
