A whistleblower is a person who exposes secretive information or illegal activity, unethical, or not correct within a private or public organization.
“I urge all of our government leaders - notably all Members of Congress - to step back and reflect on the important role whistleblowers play in our constitutional republic's ability to oversee itself.” Whistleblower's attorney urges against naming his client.
