Romero Federico "Miro" Saenz Quimbo (born December 12, 1969) is a Filipino politician who has served as the representative for Marikina's second district since 2025. A member of Lakas–CMD, he previously held the seat from 2010 to 2019.
Educated at the University of the Philippines Diliman, Quimbo began his legal career as an associate of the Poblador Bautista & Reyes law firm, during which he participated in the impeachment of Joseph Estrada. He became the chief executive officer (CEO) of the Pag-IBIG Fund in 2002 and served until 2010, when he resigned to run for a seat in the House of Representatives as a member of the Liberal Party.
During his tenure in Congress, he held senior roles in the lower house and within the Liberal Party. During the 2016 elections, he served as the campaign manager of the Senate slate of the administration-backed Koalisyon ng Daang Matuwid and remained with the party following an exodus of members to PDP–Laban. Following Gloria Macapagal Arroyo's election as House speaker, he claimed the minority leadership before losing a voice vote to minority leader Danilo Suarez, an outcome he has since contested.
In August 2024, Quimbo joined Lakas–CMD, the largest party in the lower house at the time. He was elected back to the lower house in 2025, marking his return to the legislature after a six-year absence.
