WASHINGTON, D.C. — July 30 marks the 12th annual National Whistleblower Day, a year following Summit Point resident Teresa Tumblin’s move to submit her nearly decade-long fight for justice with an appeal through the Merit System Protection Board.
The board oversees federal labor management relations, and in December 2022, the Biden administration passed a law that would allow FBI whistleblowers to appeal their cases through that board.
Tumblin was the first FBI whistleblower to utilize the mechanism for appeal and continues to wait for justice in her case.
