District Dispatch has posted a new item, ‘Tell Congress to strengthen
Whistleblower Protection Act as session nears end'

As the Government Accountability Project points out:

We are nearing the end of a decade long campaign to strengthen the
Whistleblower Protection Act. With less than 80 working days before Congress
adjourns, we need your voice to ensure passage of the Whistleblower
Protection
Enhancement Act (S. 372, H.R. 1507).

Over the past several months we have overcome opposition and now we are
closer
than ever to real reform. However, we risk having to start over next
Congress
if final passage of this bill isn’t made a political imperative. And in the
meantime, countless whistleblowers continue to be the target of retaliation,
without having any credible rights to defend themselves with.

All of the cards are stacked in our favor, but time is running out! Congress
needs to hear from you -- the whistleblowers and public at large that this
reform is intended to protect.

Please visit the LAC to contact your representatives and senators to express
the importance of this issue!

Jessica McGilvray
Assistant Director
