He sat in the Democratic left, and was elected vice-president in 1893 and 1894.

He actively supported the Waldeck-Rousseau ministry, and upon its retirement in 1903 he was himself charged with the formation of a cabinet. In this he took the portfolio of the Interior, and the main energy of the government was devoted to an anti-clerical agenda[4]. Anti-clericalism is a historical movement that opposes Religious (generally Catholic institutional power and influence real or alleged in all aspects of public and political The parties of the Left in the chamber, united upon this question in the Bloc republicain, supported Combes in his application of the law of 1901 on the religious associations, and voted the new bill on the congregations (1904), and under his guidance France took the first definite steps toward the separation of church and state. The 1905 French law on the Separation of the Churches and State ( French: Loi du 9 décembre 1905 concernant la séparation des Églises et de l'État) was passed by By 1904 through his efforts, nearly 10,000 religious schools had been closed and thousands of priests and nuns fled France rather than be persecuted. [5]

He was vigorously opposed by all the Conservative parties, who saw the mass closure of church schools as a persecution of religion. But his stubborn enforcement of the law won him the applause of ordinary left wingers, who called him familiarly le petit père. Finally the defection of the Radical and Socialist groups induced him to resign on January 17, 1905, although he had not met an adverse vote in the Chamber.
