Press Release: Grassley Calls for Investigation into Whistleblower Retaliation at Customs and Border Protection

None

Grassley calls for investigation into CBP retaliation against whistleblowers after lengthy developmental struggles and previous restoration efforts.

Quiver AI Summary

Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley has urged Customs and Border Protection (CBP) to investigate instances of whistleblower retaliation within the agency. Grassley’s appeal comes after the careers of three whistleblowers were restored following years of retaliation for exposing CBP's noncompliance with the DNA Fingerprint Act of 2005.

Grassley referenced a 2021 report from the Office of Special Counsel that detailed retaliatory behavior from CBP officials, including former leaders Ronald Ocker and Juan Fernandez. He stressed the importance of accountability for those responsible, stating, "The bureaucrats who retaliated against... these brave whistleblowers must be held accountable."

The senator highlighted his continued advocacy for whistleblower protections and earlier efforts to reinstate the whistleblowers’ positions and credentials, urging a thorough investigation to prevent future retaliation in the agency.
