Stimulus Bill Said to Contain Clearance Provisions

The Washington Post recently railed against sections of the Stimulus bill under consideration in Congress that would extend protections to whistleblowers at Intelligence Community agencies and provide for federal judicial review of executive branch decisions to revoke a security clearance.

The paper argued that such measures would infringe upon executive branch authority over security clearance determinations and sensitive intelligence matters.

ClearedCommunity.com is checking whether the language remained in the Stimulus bill passed by Congress last week. Find a more detailed account for the whistleblower protection provisions here.
