Agnès Firmin-Le Bodo (born 20 November 1968) is a French pharmacist [1] and politician of the Horizons party who briefly served as Minister of Health and Prevention in the government of Prime Minister Élisabeth Borne from 2023 to 2024. From the 2017 elections to 2022, she was a member of the National Assembly, representing the Seine-Maritime's 7th constituency. [2]
In November 2017, Firmin-Le Bodo left The Republicans (LR) and joined the new Agir party. [3] [4] In 2021, she also joined Horizons, the political party founded by former Prime Minister Édouard Philippe, and was appointed its spokeswoman in December 2021. [5] Following Horizons' failed merger with Agir, she left the latter. [6]
In parliament, Firmin-Le Bodo served on the Committee on Social Affairs. In addition to her committee assignments, she was part of the French-American Parliamentary Friendship Group and the French- Australian Parliamentary Friendship Group. [7]
During the COVID-19 pandemic in France, Firmin-Le Bodo received death threats for her support of vaccine passports. [8]
In late 2023, Firmin-Le Bodo is suspected of having failed to declare over €20,000 worth of undisclosed gifts — including watches, bottles of champagne, smartphones and a television — from Laboratoires Urgo between 2015 and 2020, when she was working as a pharmacist in Normandy, according to an investigation by French website Mediapart.
