Capitol Alert

The latest on California politics and government

LauraRichardson.jpg Freshman Democratic Rep. Laura Richardson opened her personal financial records up for her hometown paper, the Long Beach Press-Telegram, to show that she is no longer deficient on loans for any of her properties.

The Long Beach congresswoman has faced much scrutiny since earlier this year, when it was reported that she hadn't paid the bills on a Sacramento home, which had since been foreclosed on. It later came out that she had defaulted on other properties, as well.

Richardson said all is well now, according to the Press-Telegram.

"What I wanted to show you is everything is currently in order and has been resolved," she told the paper. "I have not been perfect, but I've learned from my mistakes, and I am working very hard."
