Prior to becoming an elected official, Nguyen founded marketing firm Caddis Advertising. He was also active in public speaking and conservative causes.[4] He is a member of the Oath Keepers, a far-right organization.[2]
Nguyen is anti-abortion, anti-vaccine card, and supports tax cuts.[9] He strongly opposes communism, citing his experience living in Saigon during the Vietnam War.[10] In November 2021, he sponsored House Bill (HB) 2008 that would require the Arizona State Board of Education to update high school civics curriculum to include anti-communist narratives from people who, like Nguyen, fled communist countries.[1][11] On its initial third hearing, the legislation failed to pass the Senate floor, but on reconsideration, it passed with 16 ayes and 12 nays. Ducey signed it into law on June 17, 2022.[12]
Following his reelection in 2022, Quang was appointed chair of the House Judiciary Committee.[2]
