Simona Perry, for Truthout: "For 15 years, the non-profit PEER has been working on behalf of employees from federal, state and local governments in cases of whistleblower retaliation, scientific fraud and political malfeasance. Jeff Ruch explained to me that the politically charged workplace that government scientists are currently in is not new with the George W. Bush administration. However, Jeff pointed out during our conversation, what PEER has seen in the past seven years under Bush is an increase in the career level of federal employees who are calling for help. In the past, the typical request for assistance would come from a National Park biologist; today they field calls from National Park superintendents."
