He was elected Federal Deputy by the First Federal Electoral District of Durango to the LX Legislature from 2006 to 2009, in which he was a member of the Communications and Justice Commissions, as well as a spokesperson for the PRI parliamentary group. >
He has been criticized for his support as a Deputy in the Congress of the State of Durango, publicly and emphatically provided the reform of the Organic Law of the Universidad Juárez of the State of Durango (maximum house of studies of that federal entity ); to the degree that it was known as the "Benitez law". In fact, the proposal was sent by the then governor of the State C.P. Ismael Hernández Deras and was supported by the State Congress. This law was considered by a sector of the university community, as invasive of the autonomy of the university already mentioned, and generated bad public image to the then deputy Benítez.
His most relevant project as a legislator was the proposal for a new Political Constitution of the State of Durango, a matter of which he is a great connoisseur. The political disagreements resulted in a reformed Constitution in 2013 that does not contemplate many of the ideas contributed by Benítez Ojeda, however, they have not lost news.
At the moment he occupies the position of Deputy in the Congress of the State of Durango.
