FBI Whistleblower Protection Enhancement Act of 2025

This bill strengthens protections for FBI employees who report misconduct or wrongdoing. It prohibits the FBI from punishing staff for whistleblowing, testifying about violations, or cooperating with internal investigations, including during probationary periods. New FBI hires must receive written information about whistleblower rights within 180 days of appointment, and the Attorney General must ensure clear procedures for reporting retaliation. The bill also clarifies the appeals process for employees claiming retaliation, requiring decisions to follow specific legal standards. These changes directly affect all FBI employees who might report safety, security, or ethical concerns.
