This resolution officially designates July 30, 2025, as "National Whistleblower Appreciation Day." This date commemorates the unanimous passage of the first whistleblower legislation by the Continental Congress on July 30, 1778, which established the duty of all persons to report misconduct to authorities. The resolution highlights that whistleblowers risk their careers and reputations to report waste, fraud, and abuse, saving taxpayers billions of dollars annually. It encourages the Federal Government to implement the intent of the Founding Fathers by having executive agencies inform employees, contractors, and the public about their legal right to report misconduct in good faith. Furthermore, agencies are urged to acknowledge the significant contributions of whistleblowers in combating violations of laws and regulations in the United States.
