Nery Abilio Ramos y Ramos (locally ['neɾi a'βi.ljo 'ra.mos i 'ra.mos]; 12 May 1979) is a Guatemalan politician and former police officer who is serving as president of the Congress of the Republic of Guatemala since 2024.[1]

He was elected President of the Congress of the Republic of Guatemala on 19 January 2024, after the Constitutional Court annulled the election of Samuel Pérez Álvarez as president and disqualified the Semilla party from aspiring to positions within the leadership of Congress.[1] Ramos is considered close to Semilla and President Bernardo Arévalo.[2]
