Jean-Charles Colas-Roy (born 2 May 1978) is a French politician of La République En Marche! (LREM) who was a member of the French National Assembly from 2017 to 2022, representing the department of Isère.[1]
Political career
Colas-Roy joined the Socialist Party (PS) following right-wing candidate Jean-Marie Le Pen's qualification for the second round of the 2002 presidential election. He eventually left the PS in 2014.[2]
In parliament, Colas-Roy served on the Committee on Sustainable Development and Spatial Planning. From 2019 until 2020, he was also a member of the Committee on Legal Affairs. In this capacity, he was in charge of environmental issues within LREM.[3] In addition to his committee assignments, he was part of the French-Spanish Parliamentary Friendship Group.[4]
In September 2018, following the appointment of François de Rugy to the government, Colas-Roy supported the candidacy of Barbara Pompili as president of the National Assembly.[5] When Richard Ferrand was elected instead, he stood as a candidate to succeed him as chairman of the LREM parliamentary group. His candidacy was endorsed by Pompili, among others.[6] In an internal vote, however, he came in sixth out of seven; the position went to Gilles Le Gendre instead.[7]
He lost his seat to Cyrielle Chatelain of EELV in the second round of the 2022 election.[8]
Political positions
In October 2020, Colas-Roy publicly opposed the government of Prime Minister Jean Castex when he called for fellow MPs to vote against the reintroduction of neonicotinoid pesticides to fight a disease affecting beetroots.[9][10]
