Dolorosa was a call center worker who became a paralegal and union leader with BPO Industry Employees Network Philippines (BIEN), an organization that helps call center workers exercise their rights and organize to improve their job conditions. We extend our condolences to Dolorosa's family and friends, as well as the greater international labor union and LGBTQI+ communities who loved him. We welcome the Philippine government's condemnation of the attack and its commitment to thoroughly investigate and to hold the perpetrators accountable. We join with the Philippine government in underscoring that impunity is unacceptable. Stay connected with the State Department:
