    Last night, David Ayala-Zamora passed away. A union organizer and immigrant rights organizer, David was a true champion for justice. His early experiences being tortured in El Salvador shaped the core of his character & he brought that strength & resilience to everything he did.

        I was proud to have David serve as the Organizing Director at OneAmerica, where he helped build our statewide organizing network using the Latin American concept of “base groups” to expand our presence in places from Skagit County to Yakima to Vancouver.

        Later, when I decided to run for Congress in 2016, David left his job at @workingwa to run the field program for my campaign, overseeing an operation of six organizers and over 1,000 volunteers that knocked on 120,000 doors and made over 240,000 phone calls to help elect me.

        In addition to @weareoneamerica, the Pramila For Congress Campaign, & Working Washington, David worked for many years at @SEIU in Portland & Seattle, helping to organize low-wage workers & bring justice to the workplace. He loved to dance and brought joy and resolve to every job.

        David described being tortured as “the best experience in my life. Being tortured is like running a marathon. It taught me how committed I am in the struggle for justice. And it has fortified me in some ways, because you learn how much capacity you have in this body.”

        David was a husband to a strong wife, & the proud father of a son & two daughters. I send my deepest condolences to his family and loved ones. A light has gone from our world, but David’s legacy shines brightly w/all those he touched & all the movements he helped build.
