Olivier Serva (born 21 June 1974 in Pointe-à-Pitre) is a French politician who has represented Guadeloupe's 1st constituency in the National Assembly since 18 June 2017.[1] Elected in 2017 as a member of La République En Marche! (LREM), Serva left the LREM to run for reelection as a member of the local Eko Zabym party.[2]
Political career
In parliament, Serva serves on the Finance Committee.[3] In 2020, Serva was the only member of the LREM group who abstained from the inaugural vote of confidence on the government of Prime Minister Jean Castex.[4]
In 2022, Serva left the LREM to run as a member of the local Eko Zabym party.[2] He was categorized as a DVG ("miscellaneous left") candidate and was supported by La France Insoumise in the second round, where he won with 74.01% of the vote.[5]
Political positions
Serva apologized for saying in 2012 that homosexuality was an "abomination".[6]
In 2020, Serva was one of ten LREM members who voted against his parliamentary group's majority and opposed a much discussed security bill drafted by his colleagues Alice Thourot and Jean-Michel Fauvergue that helps, among other measures, curtail the filming of police forces.[7][8]
