If after the legislation is passed, FBI agents will be able to come forward and tell what they know publicly to Congress and before courts about past FBI/DOJ operations and conduct (not just ones in the future)then it has the potential of being for the good.

However, expect Bush to come out asking the Congressional hearings with Whistleblowing FBI agents to be held behind closed doors like he just did for the 9/11 failure hearings. Also I would expect Bush might veto the Grassley legislation

[YaYa123]

Grassley has worked to protect government whistleblowers for years. As for co-signing a bill to improve the FBI, let's face it, this is needed. After 8 years of Clinton corruption, which infected even the FBI, along with every other government agency, this is long over-due. We know Leahy wouldn't be doing it if he couldn't use it to slam the current administration, but Bush can handle that.

Grassley Comments on Airline Whistle-Blowers

Sen. Chuck Grassley today made the following statement regarding the Clinton Administration's plan to grant airline personnel immunity for reporting operational errors to the Federal Aviation Administration.

"This is a good first step," Grassley said. "But to ensure public safety, Congress needs to enact full whistleblower protection for all airline employees."

Grassley is noted on Capitol Hill for promoting whistle-blower protection legislation and he has a provision in the current FAA Reauthorization Bill in conference between the Senate and House."

But for the best whistleblower story that Grassley got involved in, read this one:
