In the legislature

Oaks was a member of the House of Delegates from 1983 to 1989 when he automatically forfeited his seat after being convicted of theft charges for double-billing expenses both to the State for expenses performed in official capacity and to his campaign fund. [2] After a losing bid to regain office in 1990, Oaks was re-elected in 1994 when several incumbent delegates retired and served in the House of Delegates since. He is a member of the Health and Government Operations Committee.
