Causse holds a position in the Bureau of the National Assembly of the 15th legislature of the French Fifth Republic as a secretary, under the leadership of president Richard Ferrand. He also serves on the Committee on the Sustainable Development and Spatial Planning. In addition to his committee assignments, he is a member of the French-Burmese Parliamentary Friendship Group and the French-Laos Parliamentary Friendship Group.[2]
