Rep. Glenn says she’ll work again this term on legislation to create a State Employee Ombudsman to receive and refer whistleblower complaints from state employees. Similar legislation died in the Michigan Senate last term and Rep. Glenn argues a whistleblower law would have been beneficial in the Flint water crisis.

Rep. Annette Glenn, R-Midland, today said the reported possible indictment of former Gov. Rick Snyder, R-Michigan, “makes all the more clear why Michigan should immediately take action to give state government whistleblowers legal protection from retaliation, regardless of which party holds the governor’s office.”
