In the 2016 election, he won election to the Connecticut House of Representatives from the 22nd district, defeating 11-term incumbent Democrat Elizabeth Boukus. He defeated Democrat Richard Ireland Jr for his second term in 2018 and ran unopposed for reelection in 2020.
A Republican, in 2014 Petit considered running for Congress in the 5th district against then freshman Democrat Elizabeth Esty, but decided against it. He also declined to run for the seat in 2018.
Petit's daughters, Hayley and Michaela, were 17 and 11 when they and his wife Jennifer Hawke-Petit were killed. In 2012, he remarried to Christine Paluf, a photographer whom he met when she volunteered for the Petit Foundation. They have a son, William Petit III.
On July 23, 2007, Petit's wife, Jennifer, and two daughters were murdered in a home invasion robbery and arson at their house in Cheshire. Despite serious injuries from a baseball bat, Petit escaped and was the only survivor.
In the years following the loss of his family, Petit attended the trials of the two attackers who were later both convicted of murder, and devoted himself to philanthropy. In 2007, he founded the Petit Family Foundation, which supports education, especially of women in science; people affected by chronic illnesses (his wife had multiple sclerosis); and assistance to victims of violence. He also advocated for victims' rights and in defense of the death penalty; in 2012 it was repealed in Connecticut and the two attackers were subsequently re-sentenced to life without parole.
In 1989, Petit entered private practice in Plainville. In 1989, he also became medical director of the Joslin Diabetes Center at New Britain General Hospital, now a campus of the Hospital of Central Connecticut, and from 1994 to 2008 he served as Director of Public Health for Plainville.
