Dussopt was a member of the Socialist Party from 2000 to 2017. From 2007 until 2017, he was a member of the National Assembly. In parliament, he served on the Committee on Economic Affairs (2007-2009) and the Committee on Legal Affairs (2009-2017).^[4]

In addition to his parliamentary activities, Dussopt worked on Manuel Valls’ campaign team in the Socialist Party's primaries for the 2017 presidential election.^[5] Following the 2017 French legislative election, he was among a minority that voted against the Philippe government's proposal for the 2018 national budget.^[6][7]

On 27 November 2017, Dussopt was appointed by President Macron to the position of Secretary of State to the Ministry of Public Action and Accounts, under the leadership of minister Gérald Darmanin. Soon after that, he was expelled from the Socialist Party.^[8] On 24 December 2017 he resigned from the National Assembly.

In 2020, he created the new movement Territories of Progress with fellow minister Jean-Yves Le Drian.^[9]

On 20 May 2020, French online investigative and opinion newspaper Mediapart revealed that the French utility company Saur gave him a present of lithographs by Gérard Garouste for a value of 2,000 euros in January 2017, just a few days before he announced a contract for a hydroelectric turbine with the same company in his town of Annonay.^[10][11]

After the revelations, he initially answered that it was "A gift from a friend", but later he recognized that it was a gift from the company, and he promised to give back the lithographs. Additionally, the Saur employee who gave him the gift declared that he was not a friend of Dussopt, but that Dussopt was just a client.

In March 2023, Dussopt outed himself as a gay man in an interview with french magazine Têtu.^[12]
