Do other laws besides federal laws protect whistleblowers?

Yes. Many states have enacted laws to protect whistleblowers. Most of these laws have a longer statute of limitations than the 30 or 60 day time limits in some of the federal whistleblower statutes.  These state laws may also  offer other benefits or damages unavailable under federal law. 

It may be easier for a whistleblower to find a local lawyer knowledgeable about state whistleblower protections than to find an attorney familiar with the federal whistleblower laws.
