David Fishback's Blog: Past endorsements and analyses on Montgomery County Board of Education Elections

For 30 years, David worked in the U.S. Department of Justice’s Civil Division. As Assistant Director of its Torts Branch, he was a leader in the successful effort to block the manufacturers of asbestos and Agent Orange from shifting their legal liability to taxpayers. Earlier in his career, David worked for the National Labor Relations Board, for the Center for Political Reform, and in a Memphis prison as a VISTA volunteer.

As an education advocate in Montgomery County, Maryland, David served as a PTA co-president of a magnet integration school and later as the chairperson of the county’s Citizens Advisory Committee on sexuality education, bringing intelligent discussion of LGBTQ+ topics into the public school curriculum in the face of significant conservative pushback. Along with his wife Bobbi, he co-founded the LGBTQ-inclusive Kulanu group at Temple Emanuel, where he had also served as a board member.

David holds degrees from Harvard Law School and The George Washington University. He received a Heschel Vision Award from Jews United for Justice in 2015.
