Today on the Federal Drive with Terry Gerton . . . it's National Whistleblower Day

  • The United States has protected whistleblowers since the Continental Congress. Nearly 250 years later, advocates say insiders remain one of the government's most important tools for uncovering wrongdoing and emerging risks
  • If whistleblowers are essential to enforcement, government increasingly wants them to come forward. One recent case shows just how serious that effort has become
  • Encouraging people to speak up is one challenge. Protecting them afterward is another, especially when they work for government contractors
  • Good intentions, incentives and legal protections only matter if employees know where to turn when they uncover a problem. On National Whistleblower Day, we examine the protections, risks and realities of reporting wrongdoing inside government
