Washington D.C. – In response to Representative Grace Napolitano’s (CA-31) announcement that she will retire at the end of her current term, the League of Conservation Voters (LCV) released the following statement from Deputy Legislative Director Madeleine Foote:

“Since joining the US House of Representatives in 1998, Representative Grace Napolitano has been a champion for clean air, clean water, and healthy communities in Southeastern Los Angeles County and across the country. She earned a perfect 100% score in 2022 and a 91% lifetime score on LCV’s National Environmental Scorecard. As a longtime member of the Transportation and Infrastructure Committee and leader on the Water Resources and Environment Subcommittee, Rep. Napolitano has distinguished herself as a true champion for ensuring that everyone has access to safe, clean water, renewable-powered transit, and a healthy environment for their families. We are grateful for her life-long commitment to public service and wish her the best in her well-earned retirement.”
