Lundberg sponsored several measures during the 2011 session, one of which sought to develop a new alternative medical assistance program for the elderly. SB 11-006 focused on creating a voluntary medical assistance program for Medicaid-eligible patients, which would give Medicaid patients different options for their medical needs. The bill was directed to the Senate Committee on Health and Human Services, and Lundberg touted that the measure would have been more cost-efficient and saved the state money. The bill, however, was postponed indefinitely on a 7-2 vote.

Lundberg was responsible for several important pieces of legislation during the 2010 session. During his first session in the Colorado State Senate, Lundberg sponsored a measure that would have imposed several rules regarding voter registration drives.

In January 2009, Lundberg was elected by vacancy committee to serve the remainder of State Senator Steve Johnson's term, which was vacated when Senator Johnson became a county commissioner for Larimer County. The vacancy committee elected Lundberg over his opponent Mike Lynch by a margin of 86 to 42.

In the 2009 session, Senator Lundberg successfully sponsored a measure to require proper signage to warn motorists that traffic control cameras are in use at intersections, and a measure that allows school districts to use discretion in determining punishment for students in incidents of look-alike weapons on school grounds. The latter measure was prompted by an incident in which a student was suspended for having a practice drill team rifle in her vehicle on school grounds.

As three-term Representative for the 49th House District, Lundberg sponsored 400 House bills, 13 Senate bills, and 10 resolutions, 16 of which passed.
