It's time to tell the President and Congress... Things Need To Change! Mirror the way Federal and Civilian Whistleblower complaints are handled and start holding Federal Agencies accountable!
The Issue
In the U.S., Whistleblowers put themselves at great risk to expose corruption within their Agency/Organization.
It is a common belief, Federal Employees have many unbias channels to utilize when navigating through the Federal complaint system. However, there is a great Disparity of Treatment between Federal Whistleblowers and Civilian Whistleblowers.
Federal Whistleblower cases are handled much differently from Civilian employee cases.
What could be the difference? Money!!!
When Civilian employees win their cases, the Government is able to capitalize on the win.
However, when Federal employees win their cases...they not only expose corruption that's intended to remain silent within the Federal Government...but the Federal Government is not able to capitalize on the win.
A loss of money is more than enough reason to ignore, stifle, and silence Federal Employees!
These Federal Agency Attorneys often demonstrate a conflict of interest with the very Agencies enacted to investigate and adjudicate complaints against the Agency.
It is well known, when Federal Agencies begin losing their case, these same Federal Agencies often change the rules, with impunity.
No one considers the great emotional and financial distress incurred by the Federal Whistleblower to expose corruption. But this is almost always considered amongst Civilian Whistleblowers.
The Federal Government knows Federal complainants and Whistleblowers do not meet a certain "class" to receive free representation or assistance from special interest groups. Therefore, there's a reason to ignore, stifle, and silence Federal Employees!
Did you know less than 35% of Whistleblower complaints are investigated?
When Attorneys are looking to accept/litigate Whistleblowers cases, the decision almost solely lies on what the investigation uncovers...an investigation in which almost never happens.
Therefore, Federal employees mentioned within Whistleblower complaints have the full power of the Government behind them, in their total defense, while Whistleblowers are left in an environment of undocumented harassment and retaliation.
Federal Agencies have written the rules and have their own Attorneys to manipulate the law to their advantage, all the while pleading ignorance of the law.
It's time to tell the President and Congress...Things Need To Change! Federal Agencies are not being held accountable for violating Whistleblower Laws because they are being assisted by...the Federal Government!
