He later rose in ranks by becoming the District Chairman in 1987, Regional Vice-chairman (1989–1995) and Regional Chairman (1995) of the CSU Agricultural Association.

He became a District Councillor, Neumarkt/Oberpfalz in 1978. In 1984–1996, he was the Vice-chairman of Neumarkt/Oberpfalz district council and from 1984 to 1996, the Mayor of Berngau.

Member of the German Parliament, 1990–2004

Albert Dess from 1992 to 2004 was the Farm policy spokesman for the CSU Regional Group in the Bundestag and from 1997 to 2004, a Member of the CDU/CSU Group Executive Committee. He later became the Chairman of the CSU Regional Group working party for Agriculture, Consumer Protection, Environment, Transport, Building and Energy from 2000 to 2004.

Member of the European Parliament, 2004–2019

Dess was a member of the European Parliament's Committee on Agriculture and Rural Development (AGRI). He was a substitute for the Committee on International Trade (INTRA), a member of the delegation for relations with Mercosur and a substitute for the delegation to the ACP-EU Joint Parliamentary Assembly.

In May 2018, Dess announced that he would not stand in the 2019 European elections but instead resign from active politics by the end of the parliamentary term.

Controversy

Outside Germany, Dess is best known for trying to introduce in the European Parliament a Volkswagen-written piece of legislation that would have exempted a whole class of vehicle from pollution controls. The proposal was dropped after the Volkswagen emissions violation scandal erupted and Dress has thus far refused requests to comment on his actions.
