Assemblywoman Bonnie Lowenthal was one of only 12 members of the Assembly to receive a perfect grade from the California League of Conservation Voters.
The environmental group identifies key pieces of legislation and scores based on the members' votes on those bills, according to Lowenthal's chief of staff, Will Shuck.
Republicans voted with the environmentalists 13 percent of the time, while Democrats voted with the league 87 percent of the time.
"Between both houses, only 19 received a 100 percent score. Two of them represent Long Beach, and two were named Lowentha," Shuck said.
Joe Segura, a mild-mannered reporter for a major metropolitan newspaper, has covered Gotham City, er Long Beach, for 34 years. During his very, very long -- endless -- tenure, he's covered almost every beat, and he was the main writer for BeachWeek, which focused on life and lifestyles of the shoreline communities from downtown Long Beach to the Huntington Beach pier.
