In the 2017 legislative election, Folliot claimed the banner of the presidential majority without being explicitly invested by La République En Marche!. Following the election, he stood as a candidate for the National Assembly's presidency; in an internal vote within the LREM parliamentary group, he lost against François de Rugy. He came in last with the support of 32 deputies.
In parliament, Folliot serves on the Defence Committee. In addition to his committee assignments, he chairs the French-Egyptian Parliamentary Friendship Group.[4]
