Dear MISC Members, the attached sign on letter for whistleblowers is from Evy Brown and David Pardo.You can send your information directly to David Pardo atdpardo220@gmail.com to join the letter. Any
delays on sending this letter were not for any particular reason other than busy schedules. The Steering Committee supports and has fought hard for the reforms highlighted in the letter. We havebeen told repeatedly by Senate and House members that these are not passable in this political climate.It is indeed not a favorable climate for federal whistleblowers. In fact, we are surprised to have any accessto court at all given the House leadership's opposition to the idea. But though we have been repeatedlytold that the bill goes as far as it can go, it does not mean we shouldn't keep asking for what's right.However, that is with a caveat: there will come a time when we will need the support of all of us to getsome reforms through to help as many whistleblowers as we can. There will be a moment when theperfect will become the enemy of the good. We hope that at that time, all federal whistleblowers willstand in solidarity with one another to get a law that serves as many as possible. Warm regards,
