In the Assembly, Lowenthal authored gun control in
California that would ban gun selling in people's homes.[5] He

Caucus and authored legislation for the creation of
California’s first ever Bipartisan Citizens Redistricting
Commission.[6]
Senator Lowenthal was named Legislator of the Year by the
California Firefighters Association in 2002 after he passed a
law that limited liability for organizations that donated
firefighting equipment. The League of California Cities named him Legislator of the Year in 2001 due to his
advocacy on behalf of local governments. He has also received the "Rivie" Award from the Friends of the Los
Angeles River due to his efforts to help clean up the troubled river.

U.S. House of Representatives
2012 election
On November 6, 2012, Lowenthal was elected to the U.S. House of Representatives from the newly created 47th
District after defeating Republican Gary DeLong.[12] Although DeLong carried the Orange County portion of the
district with 54 percent of the vote, Lowenthal swamped him in the Los Angeles County portion by over 38,000
votes, more than the actual margin of 30,100 votes. He took office on January 3, 2013. He is the first Jewish
Democrat to represent a significant portion of traditionally heavily Republican Orange County in Congress since
Jerry M. Patterson, who served from 1975 to 1985. In much of the Orange County portion of the district, he is
the only elected white Democrat above the county level. However, the Los Angeles County portion has more
than double the population of the Orange County portion.
Lowenthal was reelected in 2014 by a similar margin.
