The whistleblower protection policy as outlined on the recently removed platform page (http://web.archive.org/web/20130607161858/http://change.gov/agenda/ethic...):
"Often the best source of information about...abuse in government is an existing government employee committed to public integrity and willing to speak out. Such acts of courage and patriotism...should be encouraged rather than stifled. We need to empower federal employees as watchdogs of wrongdoing and partners in performance. Barack Obama will strengthen whistleblower laws to protect federal workers who expose waste, fraud, and abuse of authority in government. Obama will ensure that federal agencies expedite the process for reviewing whistleblower claims and whistleblowers have full access to courts and due process."
