Political career

Perspective
She was a founding member of the LMP party between 2009 and 2013.[1] She was elected to the National Assembly from the party's National List during the 2010 Hungarian parliamentary election. She had been a member of the Committee on Agriculture between May 14, 2010 and February 11, 2013. She became a member of the Committee of National Cohesion on February 25, 2013.[2]
In January 2013, the LMP's congress rejected against the electoral cooperation with other opposition forces, including Together 2014.[3] As a result members of LMP’s “Dialogue for Hungary” platform, including Rebeka Szabó, announced their decision to leave the opposition party and form a new organization. Benedek Jávor said he eight MPs leaving LMP would keep their parliamentary mandates. The leaving MPs established Dialogue for Hungary as a full-fledged party.[4]
In November 2014, Szabó was elected to the Zugló council, where she became Deputy Mayor.[5]
In April 2022, Szabó was elected member of the Hungarian National Assembly from the coalition list of United for Hungary, once Gergely Karácsony resigned his seat from the list.
Szabó was elected co-leader of the Dialogue for Hungary, alongside Bence Tordai in July 2022.[6]
