Stéphane Mazars (born 25 March 1969) is a French lawyer and politician of La République En Marche! (LREM) who has been serving as a member of the French National Assembly since the 2017 elections, representing the department of Aveyron's 1st constituency[1]

Political career

In parliament, Mazars serves as member of the Committee on Legal Affairs. In this capacity, he was the parliament's rapporteur on a 2021 reform of France's procedural law proposed by Minister of Justice Éric Dupond-Moretti.[2]

In addition to his committee assignments, Mazars is part of the parliamentary friendship groups with Gabon, Kosovo and Turkey.[3]

Political positions

In July 2019, Mazars decided not to align with his parliamentary group's majority and became one of 52 LREM members who abstained from a vote on the French ratification of the European Union’s Comprehensive Economic and Trade Agreement (CETA) with Canada.[4]
