Taylor served as the Republican Party chairman for Dallas County, Iowa. In the 2012 elections, he ran for the Iowa House in the 44th district, which did not have an incumbent due to redistricting. Taylor won election to the Iowa House.
Voting accessibility
During the 2017 legislative session, Taylor voted to shorten both the amount of time one may cast an absentee ballot and the number of days one can vote at satellite polling sites, and he voted to require all voters to present a state-issued ID. Though he voted for the measure, the bill was opposed by the Iowa State Association of Counties, an advocacy group for Iowa's disabled, and Iowa's Department on Aging opposed the bill.
