Carlos Jongitud Barrios (November 4, 1924 – November 22, 2011) was a controversial Mexican union leader and governor of San Luis Potosí (1979–1985). For decades he was generally portrayed by the Mexican press as a gangsterish, de facto leader of the national teachers' union (in Spanish: Sindicato Nacional de Trabajadores de la Educación, SNTE).
