2023 Selangor state election
In the 2023 Selangor state election, Muhammad Izuan made his electoral debut after being nominated by PH to contest the Kota Damansara state seat. Muhammad Izuan won the seat and was elected to the Selangor State Legislative Assembly as the Kota Damansara MLA for the first term after defeating Mohd Radzlan Jalaludin of Perikatan Nasional (PN) and Sivarajan Arumugam of Parti Sosialis Malaysia (PSM) by a majority of 5,694 votes. As the Kota Damansara MLA, Muhammad Izuan pledged to pay attention on solvable issues and offers he can make to the people. He promised to avoid the race and religion topics in his campaign. He said although he is not a local of Kota Damansara, he never tried to be one. He created a tagline for Kota Damansara in the Malay language, namely 'Kota Damansara, Kota Kita', literally 'Kota Damansara, Our City'. He spared no time to meet the people on the ground. He raised an example he would like to address once he was elected, he would like to search for possible solutions to the issues facing the faulty lifts of the People Housing Project (PPR) flats which were the major concerns of the residents there. He also noted the hardship to manage Kota Damansara as it is located between Subang and Petaling Jaya so he has to engage with both MBSA and Petaling Jaya City Council (MBPJ). He added that he had frequently been directly meeting and engaging with the community to listen to their feedback and bringing forward their feedback to both MBSA and MBPJ. He revealed that areas under MBPJ usually faced issues with infrastructure and traffic congestion. However, issues in the areas under MBSA were more serious, the lack of public schools led children to inconvenience and far distance from their residences to schools. Besides that, he also named the poor Internet connectivity a major issue and sent a report to the Malaysian Communications and Multimedia Commission (MCMC) on the issue. He also made upgrading school facilities his priority for special needs children. For floods, he aimed to implement flood mitigation projects in the flood-prone Kota Damansara like what he did during his tenure as Member of MBSA. In addition, he promoted recycling by rewarding residents who contributed the most recyclable items with shopping vouchers. On his political career, his ambition was to climb the political ladder and rise to be a leader of the national level to serve the people.
