On February 10, 2006, Warawa was named parliamentary secretary to the Minister of the Environment. Less recently, he served as a member of the Standing Committee on Justice, Human Rights, Public Safety and Emergency Preparedness.

Warawa has introduced a private member's bill in the House of Commons, condemning discrimination against females in sex-selective pregnancy termination.[1][2]
