The O.C. Register reported yesterday that “California Assembly Speaker Fabian Nunez, facing criticism over his fundraising practices and international travel, escaped to friendlier terrain Wednesday to accept an award from Governing magazine.”
Apparently “The Los Angeles Democrat was named one of nine “Public Officials of the Year” and was accepting the honor at a dinner at Washington, D.C.’s Willard Hotel, just blocks from the White House.”
Here are a few more excerpts from the Register article:
The magazine cited Nunez’s bipartisanship in working toward passage of last year’s package of public works bonds
Thank you for posting this! I have been swampted this week and haven’t had time to post anything on him, but I have a pretty good chronicle of his recent actions. 🙂
No, he shouldn’t be receiving this award, but hey, it’s another excuse to stay in an expensive hotel and another chance to use his Luis Vuitton luggage.
How about GQ Magazine…they give
out awards too! His life subscription to Conde Nast Magazine
