In 2003 he was elected as a deputy to the 4th convocation of the Russian State Duma. As a member, he served on the Security Committee. In 2007, he was renominated by the LDPR, but failed to secure another seat.[3] He was again elected in 2021, and returned to the State Duma, becoming a member of the Committee on Culture chaired by Yelena Yampolskaya.[1]

On 24 March 2022, the United States Treasury sanctioned him in response to the Russian invasion of Ukraine.[4]
