Ilich Fredy López Ureña (born 15 February 1985) is a Peruvian politician serving as a member of the Congress of the Republic since 2021, as well as its third vice president since 2025.
Member of Congress (2021-2026)
In the 2021 Peruvian general election, López, a member of the Popular Action party, was elected as a member of the Congress of the Republic of Peru representing the Department of Junín.[1]
From 2024 to 2025, he served as chairman of the economy, banking, finance, and financial intelligence committee.[2]
He was elected as Third Vice President of Congress in July 2025 during José Jerí's presidency of Congress, and was re-elected in February 2026 when José María Balcázar was elected new president of Congress.[2]
On 23 April 2026, López announced his intention to propose a motion of censure against President Balcázar, aiming to remove him from his de jure role as President of Congress and subsequently his role as the 66th President of Peru.
