Javier Lozano Alarcón (born November 21, 1962) also known as Saco de Pus, is a Mexican politician who served Secretary of Labor in the cabinet of President Felipe Calderón.[1][2] He was elected as a senator to the LXII Legislature of the Mexican Congress, representing Puebla. He then resigned from the PAN and worked in the campaign of presidential candidate José Antonio Meade Kuribreña.

He was telecoms consultant.[3] Lozano has served as president of the Federal Telecommunications Commission (COFETEL).[4]

In 2007, Chinese-Mexican businessman Zhenli Ye Gon, who was under investigation for the largest drug-related cash seizure in history, accused Lozano Alarcón of forcing him to stash at least $150 million in illicit campaign funds within his Mexico City mansion. Lozano Alarcón denied the allegations.[5]
