On March 12 a Whistleblower Protection Enhancement Act of 2009 was launched as a Bill in the U.S. House of Representatives that gives protection to whistleblowers working on national security issues and for federally funded contractors. Currently whistleblowers who disclose cases of abuse in the national security and corporate arenas have no legal protection against retaliation from their employers. The Whistleblower Protection Enhancement Act of 2009 would for the first time give protection to whistleblowers who disclose abuses in the national security and corporate arenas. A number of whistleblowers have come forward to disclose abuses concerning the willful suppression, manipulation and destruction of evidence concerning UFOs and extraterrestrial life by national security agencies covered by the proposed Act. If passed in its present form, the Whistleblower Protection Enhancement Act will make it easier for whistleblowers to come forward to reveal such abuses without retaliation. This may finally lead to disclosure of evidence concerning UFOs and extraterrestrial life.
The original 1989 Whistleblower Protection Act, did not give protection to national security employees. An initial version of the Whistleblower Protection Enhancement Act was first passed by the House of Representatives in March 2007, but was not passed by the Senate due to Republican opposition. A renewed version of the Act was introduced in the 111th session of Congress on March 12, 2009. Both the 2007 and 2009 House versions of the Act protect whistleblowers in various national security agencies and federally funded contractors from retaliation for blowing the whistle on government or corporate corruption or abuse.
One of the co-sponsors of the House Bill is Congressman Chris Van Hollen (D-Md) who said:
We're here to reintroduce the legislation to insure that national security whistleblowers are protected. If somebody has already received a top-secret clearance, if someone has already been determined by our government to meet all the security clearances, if that individual sees waste, fraud and abuse, we have to have a mechanism for that individual to report it without fear of retribution and firing.”
Section 10 of the Bill extends whistleblower protections to employees of “the Federal Bureau of Investigation, the Office of the Director of National Intelligence, the Central Intelligence Agency, the Defense Intelligence Agency, the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency, the National Security Agency, and the National Reconnaissance Office.” Furthermore, Section 11 extends whistleblower protections to employees of companies with government contracts. This is a very significant development given the role of corporations in government funded projects related to advanced technologies that may be related to recovered UFOs and extraterrestrial life.
The Senate earlier introduced its own version of the Whistleblower Protection Enhancement Act of 2009 in February which was weaker since it omitted protection to whistleblowers from federally funded contractors and the National Reconnaissance Office. The Senate Bill was later amended to cover corporate whistleblowers. Both House and Senate (as amended) versions of the Whistleblower Protection Enhancement Act mark a major step forward in encouraging whistleblowers in national security agencies and corporations to come forward to reveal wrongdoing.
A number of whistleblowers have come forward to claim that they witnessed abuses concerning suppression and manipulation of evidence concerning UFOs and extraterrestrial life while working for federal agencies dealing with national security issues. Among the most prominent is the National Security Agency (NSA). Karl Wolf served with the USAF for four and half years, and was once taken to a secure NSA facility to repair satellite communications systems. There he witnessed Apollo imagery of artificial structures on the dark side of the moon that was highly classified and never publicly released despite subsequent FOIA requests to the NSA. Dan Sherman, who spent 12 years in the USAF, was stationed at the NSA as an electronic intelligence expert. He revealed his participation in a classified communications project with extraterrestrial entities. Clifford Stone, a 22 year Army veteran, claims that he was escorted to the Pentagon by a NSA employee who arranged for him to meet with an extraterrestrial entity in a secure underground location. Finally, Daniel Morris Salter, a 22 year USAF veteran who also worked with the National Reconnaissance Office, claims that the NSA was directly involved in suppressing witnesses with information about UFOs and extraterrestrial life.
It is hoped that the House and Senate versions of the Whistleblower Protection Enhancement Act of 2009 are quickly reconciled and signed into law by President Obama. Obama must avoid using a signing statement to dilute implementation of whistleblower protection as he did on March 12 with the budget bill passed by Congress. President Obama has expressed his support for strong whistleblower protection. He supported the stronger House version of the Bill but still voted in favor of the weaker Senate version when Senator and Presidential candidate. Prospects are good that legislation can still be signed in the first 100 days to support national security and corporate whistleblowers. This can lead to further disclosures by national security whistleblowers of abuses involving evidence of UFOs and extraterrestrial life without them facing retaliation.
