DoD, GSA, and NASA are proposing to amend the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) to implement an act to enhance whistleblower protection for contractor employees.

It also would clarify that the prohibition on reimbursement for certain legal costs applies to subcontractors, as well as contractors.
