Lawmaker says NIH may be after workers

Lawmaker says NIH may be after workers - Yahoo! News

Employees of one of the National Institutes of Health are being asked to report all contacts with Congress — a request that one lawmaker suspects is an attempt to flush out would-be whistle-blowers.

Managers distributed "record of congressional inquiry" forms to employees of the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences, one of the 27 institutes and centers that make up the NIH. At least one of those workers reported being made "nervous" by the form — and forwarded it to congressional investigators probing allegations of conflicts of interest, excessive spending and other management issues at the institute.
