Chris Jansen

Christiaan Anton Jansen (born 27 October 1966) is a Dutch politician for the right-wing populist Party for Freedom (PVV). He had been serving as State Secretary for Public Transport and the Environment between July 2024 and June 2025. He was also a member of the House of Representatives between November 2019 and March 2021.

Jansen's political career started in 2010, when he was elected to the Almere municipal council. Simultaneously, he served a member of the States of Flevoland starting the next year, rising to the position of party leader of the province in 2013. He remained loyal to Geert Wilders, founder of the PVV, after he held a speech in which he asked a crowd whether they would want more or fewer Moroccans, being the only member of the party in Almere to not distance himself from the speech. Jansen also served as chair of the Almere audit office for three years.

During the 2017 Dutch general election, Jansen was placed 23rd on the PVV's party list. His party received twenty seats – not enough for Jansen to become an MP. However, when Sietse Fritsma vacated his seat in 2019, Jansen was appointed as his successor. He subsequently resigned from his positions as municipal councillor and member of the states-provincial. His term in the House ended after he lost re-election in the 2021 general election, and he returned to the municipal and provincial councils afterwards. Following 2023 provincial elections, the PVV joined the governing coalition and Jansen became a member of the Provincial Executive of Flevoland. He left the body the following year to become State Secretary for Public Transport and the Environment in the Schoof cabinet on 2 July.
