All of the landmark CA laws (CEQA, CCCA, CCA, CESA, CDPA) were passed by Democratic legislatures. Most of them were signed by Reagan (who subsequently repudiated all of those laws as President) or Pete Wilson (who did not). The CSRA and CSGMA are the only two major CA environmental laws recent enough to be signed by a Democratic governor.
Notably, by today's political standards, (gubernatorial-era) Reagan and Wilson would be characterized as moderate Democrats.
