Political career
Jansen was elected to the 2019 Canadian federal election on October 21, 2019 after unseating Liberal incumbent, John Aldag, by 1302 votes. She sat on the Finance, Health, and COVID-19 pandemic committees during the 43rd Parliament. She logged 763 interventions on the committees; additionally, she posted 159 chamber interventions. Jansen joined the Outer Shadow Cabinet. In the 2021 federal election, she lost her seat to former MP John Aldag. She is a candidate in the 2024 Cloverdale—Langley City federal by-election.
LGBTQ+ Issues
Jansen faced criticism in April 2021 after referencing the word "unclean" while reading a bible quote in opposition to a conversion therapy ban. Jansen voted against Bill C-6, banning conversion therapy in the House of Commons on June 22, 2021. Opposing this in the house, Jansen stated she wanted to include "counsel from religious leaders on sexuality, and the rights of parents to protect and guide their children."
