Muratsuchi is Chairman of the Joint Legislative Committee on Climate Change Policies. He is Chairman of the Assembly Budget Subcommittee on Education Finance and Chairman of the Assembly Select Committee on Aerospace. Member of: Assembly Committee on Natural Resources, Assembly Judiciary Committee, Assembly Budget Committee, and Veterans Affairs.

Al Muratsuchi was appointed to Board and Commission: California Coastal Conservancy, Santa Monica Bay Restoration Commission, Governor Brown’s Military Council, and Inter-agency Veterans Council.

In 2020, Muratsuchi introduced AB-345, which would have required a minimum setback distance of 2,500 feet between oil wells and public areas where children are present and public notices of potential consequences to local communities. He has said that there was strong opposition from oil and gas industry trade unions, whom the Los Angeles Times has noted are major supporters of Democratic candidates.

The bill failed in the Senate Natural Resources and Water Committee in a 5–4 decision. State Senator Robert Hertzberg, who made the pivotal vote, said that he opposed the bill because Governor Gavin Newsom has already signed a bill in 2019 with similar intentions of setting up buffer zones. However, Muratsuchi has noted that Newsom has not made a definite commitment to do so.

After reclaiming office in 2016, Muratsuchi retained the seat with comfortable electoral margins. He was reelected over former Torrance Mayor Frank A. Scotto in 2018.
