Political career

David Taupiac was mayor of Saint-Clar from 2008 to 2022 and regional councillor for the Occitanie region from 2021.

In the 2022 legislative elections, he distanced himself from the NUPES agreement, underlining fundamental disagreements with LFI. [2] He was elected deputy for the second Gers constituency on June 19, 2022, as a dissident Socialist Party candidate, with 62.98% of the vote against his rival Maëva Bourcier from La République en marche.

He intervened in particular to oppose the proposed law banning private jet flights, highlighting the minimal impact of private jet flights on overall greenhouse gas emissions.
