In WikiLeaks wake, whistle-blower bill set to pass - Yahoo! News

Well, alright! This is good legislation as a direct response to the Wikileaks intelligence dumps.

In WikiLeaks wake, whistle-blower bill set to pass - Yahoo! News: "Rep. Edolphus Towns, D-N.Y., chairman of the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee, said Wednesday the legislation 'provides a means of securing justice to those individuals who are punished for doing the right thing.'
In a bid to draw attention to the risks whistle-blowers now face, Devine's organization prepared a report detailing the ordeals of 12 government officials whose employers sought 'to enforce secrecy though repression.'"
