Biography
Jean-Marc Tellier is the son of a Miner. He has been an activist in the French Communist Party since the age of 17.[2]
In January 2009, the outgoing mayor of Avion, Jacques Robitail, announced his wish to see his first deputy, Jean-Marc Tellier, succeed him. Disagreeing with this decision, the second deputy, Cathy Apourceau-Poly, resigned along with four other members of the municipal council in February. On October 11, 2009, Jean-Marc Tellier and the “dissident” Cathy Apourceau-Poly faced off in a municipal by-election, which he won with 55.30% of the votes cast.[3]
Elected general councilor of Pas-de-Calais in 2011,[4] then departmental councilor for the Canton of Avion in 2015,[5] in July 2021, he once again became vice-president of the Pas-de-Calais departmental council, responsible for integration, active solidarity income (RSA) and the housing solidarity fund (FSL), a role he had held during his previous term of office.
He is committed to defending Public service.[6]
In June 2017, he ran for legislative elections in the Pas-de-Calais's 3rd constituency but, hampered by the candidacy of Georges Kuzmanovic, he failed to qualify for the second round by 221 votes and was eliminated with 16.39% of the votes cast (50.50% in Avion).[7][8][9][10]
Following the rise in gas and electricity prices, on October 9, 2021, he signed a municipal decree prohibiting energy suppliers from cutting off power to households that are no longer paying their bills.[11] On his initiative, the mayors of 19 other municipalities in the Arrondissement of Lens filed a similar decree with the sub-prefecture on March 31, 2022.[12]
In May 2022, he was nominated by the French Communist Party, under the banner of the New Ecological and Social People's Union, as a candidate for the legislative elections. He was elected deputy in the second round with 50.11% of the vote, beating Bruno Clavet, the National Rally candidate, by 71 votes. He is a member of the Democratic and Republican Left group.[13]
Running for re-election in the early legislative elections on June 30 and July 7, 2024, he was eliminated in the first round with 32.29% of the votes cast, behind the National Rally candidate,Bruno Clavet.
