In 2020, he was elected to parliament on the Ordinary People and Independent Personalities list. In October 2022 he caused a disruption in parliamentary activity by destroying the parliament's computer and communication systems. The parliament session was suspected on 27 October as a result of ICT systems failure, which was originally blamed on a hacker attack. Nonetheless, in early October, the speaker, Boris Kollár announced the issue was caused by "incorrectly connected cables". Halák was later revealed as a culprit, although he denied sabotaging the equipment on purpose, stating he does not even own a computer and connected the cables only as a spontaneous reaction to seeing loose cables in a meeting room in the parliament building.
