González was a councillor for the City Council of Ávila from 1987 to 2004 and served as President of the Provincial Deputation of Ávila from 1993 to 2004.[1] He was elected as a regional representative for Ávila in the 1991 regional election, serving in the Cortes of Castile and León during its 3rd legislative period (1991–1995).[1] In 2004, he was elected to the Congress of Deputies for Ávila and was re-elected in the 2008 and 2011 elections. He left the Congress in 2015, subsequently winning a seat in the Senate in the 2015 and 2016 elections.
