He joined the Rally for the Republic in 1981 and was elected as an opposition councilor in Bondy in 1983. He was re-elected as an opposition councilor in 1989.
On June 18, 1995, in the second round of a three-way race, he defeated the socialist mayor of Les Pavillons-sous-Bois by 144 votes and, at the age of 32, became mayor of the town.
In 1997, he was the deputy for Jean-Claude Abrioux, who was re-elected as representative for the 10th district of Seine-Saint-Denis against Harlem Désir. He was again his deputy in 2002.
In March 1998, he was elected general councilor for the canton of Pavillons-sous-Bois. He was re-elected on March 21, 2004,[3] but resigned from this position shortly after his election as senator. He was succeeded by his first deputy, Katia Coppi.
In March 2001, he was re-elected mayor of Pavillons-sous-Bois in the first round with 74.69% of the vote.

He faced off against the UMP's official candidate, Gérard Gaudron, mayor of Aulnay-sous-Bois. Philippe Dallier withdrew after the results of the first round.
In the 2008 municipal elections, the list he led in Pavillons-sous-Bois won in the first round with 69.77% of the vote and he was re-elected mayor.
The same was true in the 2014 municipal elections in Seine-Saint-Denis, where the list he headed under the UMP banner won 82.82% of the vote in the first round,[4] making him the most popular mayor in France, ahead of PS candidate Bernard Deny (17.17%).
