Krzysztof Putra (pronounced|ˈkʃɨʃtɔf ˈputra, born July 4, 1957 in Józefów) is a Polish right-wing politician, a member of the Law and Justice (PiS). He served as a Deputy of the Senate Marshal from October 27, 2005 until November 4, 2007. He is now Sejm member (from November 5) and PiS candidate for Sejm Marshal.

A member of Solidarity during Communist rule, he was a worker in Białystok from 1975 to 1994. He was also a Sejm Member (Contract Sejm) from Solidarity (1989-1991). Later he was elected from Centre Agreement and was one of the founder of Law and Justice in 2001. He is known as one of the Party leader, in addition to serve as party leader in his home Podlaskie Voivodeship.

As one of the Deputies of the Senate Marshal he was regarded as a "de facto" leader of the upper house.

He was picked by the Law and Justice and their candidate for Sejm Marshal. However, he lost soundly to Civic Platform's majority nominee Bronisław Komorowski. His candidature was viewed as a political demonstration.

However, a day later he was elected one of the Vice-Marshals.

He is married and has eight children.

He is a grandson of Aleksander Putra, who served as Sejm Member before World War II from Polish People's Party.
