The IWA is establishing a permanent library for thousands of documents related to the cases of American whistleblowers.  The  documents represent a priceless resource for those will defend future truthtellers from retaliation and will give historians and journalists access to historic details that otherwise might be lost.

Accordingly, the database is now urging all those with documents related to major whistleblowing cases to contact our offices as soon as possible to discuss their preservation in the years ahead.”

At the Make It Safe Coalition conference held Monday and Tuesday in Washington, D.C., whistleblowers Daniel Ellsberg, Frank Serpico, Coleen Rowely and others urged Congress to pass legislation providing stronger protections against retaliation for federal workers who expose corruption and abuses.
