Whistleblower Protection

 

Just a note to give you something else to search on in the Web. On March 14, 2007 the United States House of Representatives passed HR 985, the The Whistleblower Protection Enhancement Act of 2007. Mostly it restates current law. But if you look it up, perhaps you can find a way to be protected while you do your good deed.

Wikipedia is a good place to start for more about this:

Books:
“Extraordinary Circumstances: The Journey of a Corporate Whistle-blower” by Cynthia Cooper

"The Whistleblower: Confessions of a Healthcare Hitman" by Peter Rost

I don't cover this more here because there already is so much you can find with a search on the web.
