Non seulement il est dès 1789 membre de la commune de Paris, mais encore, envoyé par le département de l’Yonne à l’Assemblée législative, il s’empresse, lorsqu’on agite la question des émigrés, de proposer un décret ayant pour but de déclarer les princes français, en ce moment à l’étranger, déchus de leurs droits à l’
