Miguel Mejía is a leftist Dominican politician.

He is secretary general of the Izquierda Unida (Dominican Republic). In government he was formerly Minister without portfolio, then Minister for Regional Integration.

He was closely associated with Venezuela's Hugo Chávez and in the period following Chavez' death made several controversial press statements - including in one interview accusing the USA of plotting a coup, and that Hugo Chávez never forgave Hipólito Mejía for having let the Dominican Republic become, in his view, involved in attempts to destabilize the Chavez government.
