FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
September 24, 2019
Statement Concerning the Intelligence Community Whistleblower
Our firm has represented our client from the outset, and he/she has diligently followed the
processes and laws that afford the greatest legal protections against reprisal. As legal counsel, it is
our duty to ensure our client is fully protected.
We support the bi-partisan, unanimous resolution passed by the Senate regarding our client’s lawful
whistleblower complaint and call upon the Acting Director of National Intelligence to transmit the
complete disclosure to the two Intelligence Oversight Committees. Additionally, in order to ensure
maximum legal protections for our client, we can confirm press reports that, today, we wrote to the
Acting Director of National Intelligence to request specific guidance as to the appropriate security
practices to permit a meeting, if needed, with the Members of the Intelligence Oversight
Committees. We await a timely response from the Acting Director providing such guidance.
