Thank you for including me in WHEAG's first annual Fall summit. I was impressed both personally and professionally by the people I met and it was an honor to be your keynote speaker. Your summit was the best organized whistleblower event I've attended, and I commend WHEAG for not sacrificing your purpose at the expense of personalities. I think WHEAG is an important and welcome voice in the whistleblower community, as evidenced by our recent co-signing of a letter that played a major role in a successful 26-1 committee vote giving jury trials to federal workers trying to enforce their Whistleblower Protection Act rights. Although WHEAG focuses more on judicial misconduct, I applaud its ability to see the bigger picture and fight executive misconduct with equal vigor. I look forward to working with NJCDLP and WHEAG in the future.

Sincerely, Jesselyn Radack

Tom Saunders has some interesting reflections on the first NJCDLP / WHEAG summit, and his insights on the predicament of whistleblowers has the ring of truth. Laws protecting them have been turned by the Federal Circuit into a bladeless knife without a handle. These and other problems were discussed at the Summit, remedies suggested, and Congress will hear more about all that- like with our recent campaign to have constituents deliver the NJCDLP/WHEAG package to Congressmen, Senators, or their staffs at meetings in their home offices, and address their individual concerns as well. I can only add that inefficiency, cover up, retaliation, etc. are somewhat independent of the administration in power. The party in power may change, but the bureaucracy goes on.

Commensurate with the recruiting policy of the Bill of Attainder Project, 'you meet the project, you are assimilated, resistance is futile.' I heard no objections to bonding together the individuals, and the organizations that attended this conference. I think there will be a future in this bonding.

First let me thank both Zena and Ollie for inviting me to speak on the Whistle-blower discussion panel last Friday. I felt the audience connection I believe we are truly building coalitions to tear down strongholds of injustice. I was so proud of Jess and (her) Keynote address and of course my good friend and 'Shero' Marsha, who never backs down from a fight for equity amongst humans. I shared the conference theme and positive synergy with by Amnesty Board members on Saturday in NYC. They were impressed and very much interested in us doing work together. Bottom-line, I love you for all of your dedicated service to others.

Zena, I'm running off to meet a member of congress to discuss upcoming hearings and No FEAR II. It was a total pleasure meeting you and participating in your event. We look forward to working closely with you as we fight for democracy.

I . . . noted that the (Weinstock) act, as written, has evolved as a response to collusion by "courthouse cliques", resulting in the disbarring of the attorneys who file the grievance. The other group that has been underscored are federal employees, who have "lost before they gather momentum to file a legal complaint." I think there needs to be an emphasis on single parent households as well. Single parents who challenge court verdicts are routinely chastised in ways that hurt the fractured family members. And, while I believe that all three scenarios are reaching epidemic proportions, I also feel strongly that the federal employees, and single parents are more susceptible to immediate loss that corrupt power renders.
