Honesty Without Fear - 11/8/11



In the first half hour, Dave Colapinto discusses breaking developments in Congress on the Whistleblower Protection Enhancement Act to strip federal employee whistleblowers of a right to jury trial. You can take action to improve protections for federal employee whistleblowers at www.whistleblowersradio.org.

Dave interviews EPA whistleblower Dr. Marsha Coleman-Adebayo about her recently released book No FEAR: A Whistleblower’s Triumph Over Corruption and Retaliation at the EPA. The book is a first-hand account of Dr. Coleman-Adebayo’s experience as a federal employee whistleblower and the racism and sexism she faced trying to protect the lives of South African miners.

In the second half hour, Eric M. Gutiérrez, Legislative & Public Policy Director for the National Employment Lawyers Association (NELA), will be interviewed by Dave Colapinto, and Dr. Coleman-Adebayo will also join the discussion. They discuss how the Civil Rights Tax Relief Act (CRTR) addresses the excessive and unfair tax treatment of settlements and awards in employment cases.
