Make National Whistleblower Day Permanent

Defining the Campaign

This campaign is led by five main whistleblowers: FBI whistleblowers Jane Turner and Fred Whitehurst, Enron whistleblower Sherron Watkins, Army Corps of Engineers whistleblower Bunnatine Greenhouse, and body armor whistleblower Aaron Westrick.

The campaign’s goal is President Biden signing an Executive Order that permanently recognizes July 30 as National Whistleblower Day in the U.S. The Order would require all federal agencies to educate employees about their whistleblower rights as well as celebrate whistleblowers who have made innumerable contributions in the past. Read about why July 30 is important in U.S. whistleblowing history.
