A member of the People's Party, he held various positions within the Party: President of the PP of Albacete (2000–2004);[citation needed] Councilor of the Bonete City Council for eight years (1995–2007); Member of Parliament in two terms, V legislature (1993–1996) and VI legislature (1996–2000). In the latter, he was replaced in December 1999 by Enrique García Martínez.[3]
