Nur Jazlan was elected to federal Parliament in the 2004 election for the UMNO-held seat of Pulai,previously held by Abdul Kadir Annuar. [12] He ran for the Deputy Presidency of UMNO in 2008,citing the need for UMNO to regenerate after the 2008 election,stating "UMNO must realise it is at the crossroads—it's a matter of life and death."

[14] In the 2013 election,he retained his seat,withstanding a challenge from senior Pan-Malaysian Islamic Party (PAS) politician Salahuddin Ayub,a local but Kelantan-based MP who switched back to Johor to seek to unseat Nur Jazlan. [15] Days before the 2018 election,he tweeted that the postal votes will not have significant effects to the outcome of the election,as a response to the complaints of delayed postal votes.

In July 2015,Public Accounts Committee (PAC) chief Nur Jazlan has come under heavy fire for postponing the hearing into 1MDB scandal from August to October. [19]
On 31 October 2015,Nur Jazlan has called on Arul Kanda Kandasamy and Tony Pua to stop their public debate on 1MDB,to avoid the credibility and integrity of the committee being questioned by any party. [20]
