Political career
In the Republicans' primaries ahead of the 2017 presidential election, Guévenoux was part of candidate Alain Juppé's campaign staff.[2] When François Fillon was chosen as the party's candidate, she became his camapaign team's administrative and financial director. Amid the Fillon affair, however, she resigned from that position and left the Republicans' campaign.[3]
in the 2017 French legislative election, Guévenoux joined the LREM campaign and became a member of the National Assembly. In parliament, she has since been serving on the Committee on Legal Affairs.[4] She is also a secretary of the Bureau of the National Assembly of the 15th legislature of the French Fifth Republic. In early 2018, she was one of several LREM members who joined an informal parliamentary working group on Islam set up by Florent Boudié in order to contribute to the government's bill aimed at better organising and supervising the financing of the Muslim faith in France.[5] Later that year, she co-chaired (with Éric Bothorel) a group of some twenty parliamentarians involved in organizing a nation-wide consultation process in response to the Yellow vests movement.[6]
In addition to her parliamentary work, Guévenoux is a member of the Commission consultative du secret de la défense nationale (CCSDN), an independent authority in charge of declassification of documents.[7]
From November 2017 on, Guévenoux was part of LREM's 20-member executive board under the leadership of the party's chairman Christophe Castaner.[8]
