Marc Fesneau (born 11 January 1971) is a French politician serving as Minister Delegate for Relations with Parliament and Citizen Participation, attached to the Prime Minister since 2018 under Prime Ministers Édouard Philippe and Jean Castex.[1] A member of the Democratic Movement (MoDem), he previously was president of the Democratic Movement and affiliated group in the National Assembly from 2017 to 2018.
Political career
Early beginnings
Fesneau is mayor of Marchenoir, Loir-et-Cher. He is a MoDem regional councilor in the Centre region. In 2009, he was selected to be the MoDem's candidate in Centre region for the 2010 regional elections.[2]
Member of the National Assembly, 2017–2018
In June 2017 Fesneau was elected to the National Assembly and subsequently unanimously elected President of the MoDem group in the National Assembly on 25 June; though Marielle de Sarnez had initially announced her intent to run, she ultimately decided not to.[3] He also served as member of the Defence Committee (2017-2018) and the Committee on Legal Affairs (2018).[4] In this capacity, he was his parliamentary group's rapporteur on constitutional reforms.[5][6]
In September 2018, after François de Rugy's appointment to the government, Fesneau ran for the presidency of the National Assembly;[7] the position instead went to Richard Ferrand.
Career in government
In 2018 Fesneau was appointed Minister for Relations with the Parliament in the government of Prime Minister Édouard Philippe and thus left the Assembly.[8] He was replaced by his substitute Stéphane Baudu.
