She served as a Deputy of the Republic for the 14th Departmental Grouping of Linares, Loncomilla and Parral between 1961 and 1965.

Biography Born in San Javier on 27 January 1907, Rodríguez married fellow parliamentarian Hernán Lobos Arias on 30 July 1935 in Villa Alegre. The couple had one daughter, Ana María. She lived most of her adult life in central Chile and maintained close ties to her native Maule region.

She died in Villa Alegre on 26 September 1997 at the age of 90.

Political career Rodríguez joined the Christian Democratic Party (PDC) during its consolidation period in the early 1960s. In the 1961 Chilean parliamentary election, she was elected Deputy for the 14th Departmental Grouping (Linares, Loncomilla, and Parral) for the 1961–1965 legislative term.

During her tenure, she served on the Permanent Committee on Economy and Commerce and was alternate member of the Committee on Agriculture and Colonization.

Legacy Rodríguez belongs to the first generation of women to hold seats in the Chilean Chamber of Deputies. Her legislative focus reflected the Christian-democratic emphasis on family protection, housing policy and child welfare, contributing to the gradual institutional recognition of women legislators in mid-20th-century Chilean politics.
