Dulce María Sauri Riancho (born 14 August 1951) is a Mexican politician who was the first woman to serve as governor of Yucatán, from 1991 through 1994. She served as a congresswoman during the 64th Congress (2018–2021), during which she was also the President of the Chamber of Deputies (equivalent to the Speaker of the House in other countries). During her tenure as governor, reforms which restructured the Henequen industry in Yucatán were implemented. The toll road between Mérida and Cancún was also built and became operational during her administration.
