The Schweitzer cabinet has been the government of the German state of Rhineland-Palatinate since July 2024. On 10 July 2024, the Landtag of Rhineland-Palatinate elected Alexander Schweitzer as Minister-President, receiving three more votes than the coalition factions supporting him actually have; thus, he was also elected by opposition MPs in the secret ballot. Schweitzer's cabinet was then appointed and confirmed by the Landtag. The Schweitzer Cabinet replaced the third Dreyer cabinet.

The cabinet was again formed by a traffic light coalition consisting of the three coalition partners; Social Democratic Party (SPD), Greens and Free Democratic Party (FDP).
