He was released on 30 May 1987, and became secretary general of the Democratic Progressive Party the next year. In 1991, Chang was elected to the National Assembly. He resigned his seat to pursue a position as representative of Taipei South. Chang retained his position in the Legislative Yuan via party list proportional representation until 2005.
