President Trump signed into law the “VA Accountability” bill on Friday.
“The Department of Veteran Affairs Accountability and Whistleblower Protection Act of 2017” will “[bring] accountability to VA” and “[hold] VA employees to a higher standard” and “protects employees’ due process rights” and “safeguards whistleblowers from retaliation” and simultaneously “benefits honest VA employees”.
