Listen as our client, Ryan Schwank, describes the reasons he went to work for ICE--and the ethical and legal shortcuts he observed that prompted him to blow the whistle and quit:

Two lawyers who work for ICE step forward and lift the curtain on what is really happening inside our immigration system right now. https://t.co/yBlkdr4YPh

"These common-sense reforms will increase safety for the American public as well as for the officers who serve and protect them, while holding accountable the unelected political appointees who have let their personal agendas stand in the way of good law enforcement," Ryan says.

U.S. Senators Cory Booker and Richard Blumenthal have introduced a bill to beef up vetting, training, and accountability standards for all federal law enforcement officers. Our client, ICE whistleblower Ryan Schwank, testified to Congress in February about dangerous cuts in ICE officer training. Now, his testimony is driving real forward momentum in Congress.

Meta could have listened to its own employees—whistleblowers we represent—who were saying the company needed to do more to protect children. Instead, a judge has now ordered Meta to pay $567 million in fines and is telling them what our clients told them before: take children's online safety seriously. https://t.co/y2Q3aJzn3J

In February, our client Ryan Schwank testified before both Blumenthal and Garcia about dangerous cuts in ICE training and warning about the tragic consequences we're now seeing. Ryan's having a big impact, as members of Congress are listening and acting. https://t.co/suLkXUUtyO

The ICE agent who shot and killed a man in Biddeford, Maine is under heavy scrutiny from Congress. Sen. Blumenthal and Rep. Garcia are demanding answers from ICE about the agent's training and vetting. https://t.co/yed9yENSPG

On July 30, 1778, the Continental Congress enacted the world's first whistleblower protection law, after a group of officers in the Continental Navy risked their careers to expose misconduct by a superior officer. That's why America now celebrates National Whistleblower Day on July 30th each year.

The work we do at Whistleblower Aid to support and defend brave truth tellers is a time-honored tradition as old as America itself.

"They know this is not working, and they’re going to keep doing it anyway because they’ve been ordered to do so." – Whistleblower Aid client Ryan Schwank on ICE's continued use of vehicle stops after two killings by ICE officers earlier this month https://t.co/DwRr6Ss3NL

Meta's record on child safety is like its treatment of lawful whistleblowers: abysmal. Two of our clients who revealed that Meta was knowingly endangering children were recently fired by the company. Today, Sen. Chuck Grassley stepped in on behalf of the whistleblowers, demanding that Meta explain the retaliatory terminations and "provide all records." https://t.co/PhzX6vEGpB

"The agency graduated hundreds if not thousands of cadets through a program that was deficient... And they trained a lot of officers who don't have the right training to know when to use their firearm," our client Ryan Schwank told MSNOW's Katy Tur today. Watch here: https://t.co/dBFctZNVLz

"The agency has shown that it's not acting in good faith."

For 250 years, we have been building our democracy. And for just as long, brave truth tellers have spoken out against attacks on the rule of law and attempts to bring us backward. On America's 250th birthday, we celebrate those who courageously keep us on the right path. Happy July 4th!

Whistleblowers we represent have taken on social media giants to protect children from harm online. Today we'll be observing Social Media Victims Remembrance Day at the Upper Senate Park by the U.S. Capitol, to remember the young people who have been lost and continue working to protect future generations.

[Whistleblower Aid @wbaidlaw]

We've supported courageous individuals who called out dangerous decisions—whether it was Meta willingly exposing children to harm or ICE training its officers to break the law. Today, we're asking you to support our work on behalf of whistleblowers: https://t.co/GvHXtdpQdJ

On International Whistleblower Day, we celebrate by supporting the brave people around the world who put everything on the line to protect us from governmental and corporate wrongdoing.

ICYMI: Our client Jeremiah Schofield blew the whistle on the Trump administration's attempt to ruin 2.7 million people's lives by adding them to the Social Security Administration's "death master file," which would have cut them off from their bank accounts, benefits, and basic services. https://t.co/uuBI2aqvoV

"DHS agents invade homes without judicial warrants."

This week, @CatoInstitute's @David_J_Bier hammered home to Congress how DHS agents are acting unconstitutionally, referencing the secret DHS memo our client ICE whistleblower Ryan Schwank exposed which authorized ICE agents to forcibly enter homes without a judicial warrant.

[Cato Institute @CatoInstitute]

The amnesty happening now is not for immigrants but for DHS agents who violate the Constitution, said Cato’s @David_J_Bier in testimony before the House Committee on Oversight.

LISTEN: Our client Jeremiah Schofield appeared on @ThisAmerLife to give a detailed account of how the Trump administration tried to declare 2.7 million people dead—people they knew were actually alive. Hear the whole story here: https://t.co/MrmHGA9EIq

[This American Life @ThisAmerLife]

A Social Security Administration veteran was asked by DOGE to declare 2.7 million people dead. The problem is, they were alive. Find out what he did on our show this week. https://t.co/ee3hud5xSH
