SACRAMENTO – When he was just a skinny kid in mismatched clothes, Fabian Núñez brokered his first deals: He helped his Spanish-speaking father negotiate landscaping jobs with English-speaking employers.

Twenty-five years later, Assemblyman Núñez favors subtle silk ties and well-tailored suits (but only those marked as union-made). And he has taken his deal-making abilities from his childhood homes of Tijuana and San Diego to the gold-filigreed Assembly chambers: He recently helped shepherd through an expansion of the state’s Megan’s Law, securing a nearly unanimous vote on a long-stalled issue.

Núñez was born in San Diego and raised in Tijuana some years as a child as I understand it.
