Whistleblower Report Cards by State

Each year, PEER reviews the whistleblower protection laws in each state and the District of Columbia to determine how well each state protects those within government who wish to speak out about problematic behaviors within their agencies.

The menu below provides links to the whistleblower report card for your state, which includes –

• • Where each state falls in a ranking of all states’ and the District of Columbia’s whistleblower laws;
  • The state’s full whistleblower report card with a breakdown of how points are allocated; and
  • A narrative summary of the state’s whistleblower laws.
