Jaime Medrano Veizaga (born 21 October 1971) is a Bolivian mineworker and politician who served as a member of the Chamber of Deputies from Oruro, representing circumscription 36 from 2010 to 2015. Born to a mining family from Catavi, Medrano spent much of his life in Huanuni, site of one of the largest tin mines in the country. He spent much of his career as a company worker for the Huanuni Mining Corporation, serving as a sectional leader and as the mine's industrial safety inspector. In the alliance between the mining sector and the Movement for Socialism, Medrano broadly represented all of Huanuni's mineworkers in the Legislative Assembly, though he was primarily affiliated with the area's minority salaried company workers, noted for their frequent conflicts with the much larger group of cooperative workers over control of the most productive repositories.
