The President of the Senate is the person who leads and runs the Senate (the upper house of a legislature).

Simple roles:
- Presides over meetings and keeps order during debates.
- Decides who gets to speak and enforces the Senate’s rules.
- Signs official documents and sometimes represents the Senate in public or to other branches of government.
- In some countries the post is mostly ceremonial; in others the president has real power (and may vote).
- In the U.S., the Vice President is the President of the Senate and only votes to break a tie.
