(The Center Square) â The Michigan House Wednesday approved a plan to bolster government accountability by protecting state employees who blow the whistle on potential problems and waste of taxpayer money within their departments.
House Bill (HB) 4064 â approved by an 87-21 bipartisan vote â seeks to create an official State Employee Ombudsman to receive and refer whistleblower complaints to appropriate administrative or law enforcement authorities while protecting the identity of state employees submitting the complaints. The ombudsman would use discretion in deciding whether or not to investigate every complaint.
âThis reform received broad support from Republicans and Democrats alike because itâs the right thing to do,â Rep. Annette Glenn, R-Midland, said in a statement. âThis is about making state government better and more accountable to the people who pay for it and rely on its services.
