“Press release from Congressman Eric Swalwell:

Rep. Eric Swalwell (CA-15) today introduced legislation to better protect whistleblowers from having their anonymity and safety compromised.

Swalwell began drafting the Enhancing Protections for Whistleblower Anonymity Act last year after President Trump and others attacked the courageous whistleblower who raised concerns with the Director of National Intelligence’s Office of Inspector General about the president’s actions with respect to Ukraine – actions for which the president later was impeached.

In addition to the Government Accountability Project and the Project On Government Oversight, the Enhancing Protections for Whistleblower Anonymity Act is supported by National Security Counselors, the National Taxpayers Union, Public Employees for Environmental Responsibility, and Whistleblowers for America.”
