CHARLES GRASSLEY APPRECIATION CAMPAIGN
Our Champion
Senator Charles Grassley (R-IA), the Senate Whistleblower Protection Caucus Chairman and longtime advocate of expanded whistleblower rights and protection, will give the keynote speech at the National Whistleblower Day Celebration on July 30. We want to give you the opportunity to write him a personal message of appreciation for his dedication to supporting legislation to protect whistleblowers throughout his career.
“Chuck Grassley possesses the true essence of a hero,” Jane Turner, FBI whistleblower turned whistleblower advocate, said. “He has been a stalwart advocate of whistleblowers, providing steadfast support since reintroducing a modernized and strengthened False Claims Act in 1986.”
“He is a leader in fashioning bipartisan political groundwork, allowing the passage of laws and policies that affect every single whistleblower today,” Turner said. “Known as the patron saint of whistleblowers, Senator Grassley has suffered indignities over the years from those who fight viciously to suppress truth and transparency, yet he has never wavered or abandoned his whistleblowers.”
Please send letters thanking him to:
