Voice of America (VOA) has released a YouTube video featuring interviews with U.S. Army Corps of Engineers whistleblower Bunny Greenhouse, her lawyer Michael D. Kohn, and Lindsey Williams, Advocacy Director of the National Whistleblowers Center. Produced by the VOA’s Nico Colombant, the video is six minutes, 36 seconds, long and is called Whistleblowers Unite for Justice. It presents excerpts of Bunny Greenhouse’s testimony to Congress, and exclusive interviews with her, Kohn and Williams. It describes how she blew the whistle on the no-bid contracts for a Halliburton subsidiary during the Iraq War, and then got demoted. Michael Kohn explains how her case shows the need for the Whistleblower Protection Enhancement Act (WPEA), a bill that would give federal whistleblowers access to jury trials. Lindsey Williams describes the NWC’s petition drive to support the WPEA.
