In May 2001, he sent a deputy's request to the governor of the Saratov region D. Ayatskov on the use of $ 5 million, intended in 2000 for regional health care. The request aroused the indignation of D. Ayatskov (“Let them [the State Duma deputies] not look for fleas here. If they itch, let them scratch in another place”). The activities of V. Volodin in the Saratov region were investigated by the responsible employee of the regional Security Council Sergei Yuryev (how the population treats the deputy, who pays for Volodin's hotel when he arrives, etc. - Novye Izvestia, May 23, 2001).

In accordance with this law, among others, statelessness turned out to be several tens of thousands of Russian army servicemen who had previously enjoyed the rights of citizens of the Russian Federation, who had a permanent residence permit in the union republics before entering service.

In February 2003, he initiated the initiation in the State Duma of the question of no confidence in the chairman of the Federal Energy Commission (FEC) Georgy Kutovoy. The federal law "On the federal budget for 2003" provided for the maximum increase in electricity tariffs up to 14%, but in many regions it was exceeded. On February 11, 2003, the OVR faction held a meeting, to which G. Kutova was invited, and decided to vote for the resolution "On gross violation of the procedure for setting tariffs for electricity for end consumers for 2003", submitted to the State Duma for consideration on the initiative of the leaders of four centrist fractions. At the same time, V. Volodin proposed to endorse the FEC chairman ("We are outraged that the decision to raise tariffs has been made almost everywhere, but there is no one responsible. The Federal Energy Commission refuses to do anything. Its chairman Georgy Kutovoy could not answer any question posed by the deputies." - regions.ru, 11 February 2003). In response, Kutovoy said that the Duma (including the OVR faction) itself adopted a law, according to which tariffs should be revised once a year from January 1 ("if it were not for this phrase, the tariff change would have been smooth") and accused Volodin and his faction that they started the pre-election struggle (Kommersant, February 13, 2003).

On February 21, 2003, he voted for the adoption in the third reading of the government's "Law on the Electricity Industry" (the so-called "Chubais energy reform"). In endorsing the law, the State Duma passed a non-binding resolution calling on the government to fight unjustified increases in electricity tariffs. After the approval of the bill, he said: "The previous thoughtless reform has been stopped. Now there is a person responsible for it - the government. And the situation will never happen again when REKIs inflate prices, and FEC signifies helplessness."

On October 8, 2003, the court of the Zavodskoy district of Saratov satisfied V. Volodin's claim against the newspaper Sovetskaya Rossiya for the protection of honor and dignity - regarding the publication in which it was claimed that Volodin had acquired the personal property of the cardiological sanatorium "Cheremshany-I" in the Khvalynsky district of the Saratov region ... The court ruled to oblige the editorial office of the newspaper and the author of the article to publish a refutation and pay Volodin compensation for moral damage in the amount of 500 thousand rubles from the editorial office of the newspaper and 5 thousand rubles from the journalist.

In September 2003, he was included in the list of candidates for the State Duma from the United Russia party (No. 1 in the regional group of candidates "Volzhsko-Uralskaya"). He was also nominated as a candidate from United Russia in the Balakovo single-mandate constituency No. 156 (Saratov region).

In December 2003 he was elected first deputy head of the United Russia faction. To simplify the coordination of its work, the faction was divided into four groups, one of which was headed by V. Volodin.

On March 17, 2004, he was elected deputy chairman of the Parliamentary Assembly of the Union of Belarus and Russia (chairman - B. Gryzlov).

On September 2, 2004, a report was published by the Novosibirsk Fat Plant, bought by the Buket group in 2003, according to which Volodin is the owner of 26% of the company's shares. A member of the board of directors of a number of Buket companies told the Vedomosti newspaper that Volodin had always been a shareholder in some Buket companies, but only in 2004 began to re-register shares from affiliated companies personally to himself. ("Vedomosti", September 3, 2004).

On October 2, 2004, at a meeting of the political council of the Saratov branch of United Russia, the deputy head of the party's faction in the State Duma Franz Klintsevich was asked the question: "Who will the party support in the election of the governor of the Saratov region?" Klintsevich replied that the party leadership would definitely support Volodin. (Saratovbiznesconsulting, October 2, 2004).

At the end of 2004, the Saratov press reported that the presidential envoy to the Volga Federal District, Sergei Kiriyenko, had sent submissions for two candidates for the post of governor of the region - Dmitry Ayatskov and Volodin. Ayatskov's powers expired on April 2, 2005, and the Saratov region became one of the first regions of the Russian Federation, in which the head of the region was elected not by the population, but by the regional parliament on the proposal of the president. However, as a result, Volodin's candidacy for the post of governor was not nominated by the president (the president introduced Pavel Ipatov to the Saratov Regional Duma, who was elected).

However, Volodin decided to support Ayatskov, then the current governor of the Saratov region, and he, in the words of Nezavisimaya Gazeta, duly appreciated this: in April 1996, Volodin took the post of first deputy chairman of the Saratov region government.

At the same time, it was noted that in February 1999, a second post of vice-governor was introduced in the Saratov region administration, which a number of media outlets perceived as an attempt by Ayatskov to limit Volodin's influence.

In March 2001, Nezavisimaya Gazeta named Volodin as one of the most successful debutants of the 2000 parliamentary season, having good chances for a successful continuation of his political career, and in September 2001, he took over as head of the Fatherland-All Russia Duma faction, replacing Yevgeny Primakov ...

According to the results of the vote, held on December 2, 2007, United Russia won, gaining 64.3 percent of the vote, and Volodin once again became a member of the Russian parliament. At the very first session of parliament, he was elected one of the nine deputy chairmen of the State Duma, Boris Gryzlov.

In August 2008, Volodin became a member of the commission created by the decree of President Dmitry Medvedev for the formation and training of a reserve of management personnel. The commission was headed by the head of the presidential administration of the Russian Federation, Sergei Naryshkin. It was reported that the tasks of the commission would be to prepare proposals for the development of state policy in the field of formation and effective use of the reserve of managerial personnel in the Russian Federation.

In November 2008, the X Congress of United Russia renewed the composition of the Supreme and General Councils of the party. At the suggestion of the leader of United Russia, the country's prime minister, and former Russian President Vladimir Putin, Volodin was unanimously re-elected secretary of the Presidium of the General Council of United Russia.

Volodin, as of 2007, was a professor at the Department of Constitutional Law of the Russian Academy of Public Administration under the President of the Russian Federation, Chairman of the Board of Trustees of Saratov State University named after Chernyshevsky. He is the author of a number of books: "Regional Duma: organizational and legal foundations of formation" (Saratov, 1995), "Local government in Russia" - co-authored (Saratov, 1994), as well as articles in the central and Saratov press.

In February 2009, Kommersant announced that Volodin would head a new department at the Faculty of Public Administration at Moscow State University. It was noted that in his new post he "will deal with the methodology of state building." At the same time, the publication emphasized that the deputy took up his duties, although his candidacy was approved only by the Academic Council, but it was not officially approved by the administration. In May 2009, the same newspaper announced the official appointment of Volodin as head of the department, explaining that earlier he only served as head of the department.

In September 2010, Medvedev "in connection with the loss of confidence" dismissed the mayor of Moscow Yuri Luzhkov. As Moscow mayor, he was replaced by Sergei Sobyanin, who had previously held the post of Deputy Prime Minister and Chief of Staff of the Government of the Russian Federation: on October 21, 2010, most of the deputies of the Moscow City Duma supported his candidacy. On the same day, the head of state, by his decree, appointed Volodin Deputy Prime Minister, Chief of Staff of the Government of Russia. At the same time, Volodin left the post of secretary of the presidium of the general council of the United Russia party (Sergei Neverov became the new secretary) and, as it turned out later, for "ethical reasons" resigned as head of the department of state construction at the Faculty of Public Administration of Moscow State University. At the congress of United Russia held in September 2011, Volodin was removed from the presidium of the party's general council, but remained a member of the bureau of the party's supreme council.

In the spring of 2011, on the initiative of Vladimir Putin, the All-Russian Popular Front was created. On May 25, 2011, a meeting of the ONF headquarters was held in Moscow under the chairmanship of Volodin. The next day, the press secretary of the Prime Minister of the Russian Federation Dmitry Peskov announced that Volodin had become the head of the organization's headquarters.

In the next elections to the State Duma, held in December 2011, Volodin again topped the list of United Russia candidates from the Saratov region, but after the elections he gave up his deputy mandate.

On December 27, 2011, President Medvedev dismissed Volodin from his position in the government and appointed him first deputy head of the presidential administration to replace the retired deputy prime minister Vladislav Surkov. In his new position, Volodin was entrusted with overseeing domestic policy and, in particular, the resignation and appointment of governors. The media wrote that it was on Volodin's initiative that in early 2012 several heads of Russian regions were dismissed at once. It was noted that the resignations were made in anticipation of the adoption of the law on the introduction of direct gubernatorial elections, which entered into force in June 2012,.

Volodin was awarded the Order of Friendship, the Order of Honor and the Order of Merit for the Fatherland, IV degree.

Volodin is married and has a daughter.
