State Duma of the Russian Federation

In 2016, Chernyshov was elected as a deputy in the State Duma, the lower house of the Federal Assembly of Russia. He is a representative for the Orekhovo–Borisovo constituency in Moscow. His first day in office was September 18, 2016.[3] He is also the Deputy Chairman of the Committee on Education and Science.[2][3]

Chernyshov drafted two bills in November 2016 to regulate electronic cigarettes.[4] He proposed banning sales to minors, prohibiting vaping in certain public areas such as parks, and creating regulations to avoid harmful ingredients.[5]

In November 2016, Chernyshov and fellow LDPR deputy Vasily Vlasov prepared a bill to lower the voting age in Russia from 18 to 16. This has been a policy of the LDPR since 2014, reflecting the popularity of the party among young people. However, the bill was swiftly rejected by the Russian government.Шаблон:Citation needed Following this, Chernyshov and Vlasov advanced the idea of lowering the minimum age of LDPR membership to 16 years. Chernyshov suggested that membership of the LDPR by young people might motivate other family members and friends to also join the party.[6][7]
