There are #legal limitations to the use of #NDAs in #government. Under a #federal #law that protects #whistleblowers, these agreements cannot limit a civil servant’s ability to expose #waste, #fraud & #abuse. [ruh-roh]

…The #Trump admin has used #NDAs in recent efforts to keep a close hold on certain #information.
 The #Pentagon imposed NDAs & random #polygraph testing as part of a broader effort to root out #leaks & those deemed insufficiently #loyal. The Department of #VeteransAffairs also required officials working on #layoffs last year to sign agreements, keeping much of its workforce in the dark about #MassFirings, later canceled.

The #Trump admin is planning a #government-wide nondisclosure agreement [#NDA] that bars #FederalWorkers from sharing a wide array of “confidential government information,” acc/to a draft notice posted to the Federal Register on Tuesday by the #US Office of Personnel Management [#OPM].

Trump admin proposes #NDAs for ALL #FederalWorkers
 The rule, aimed at cracking down on #leaks to #media organizations, would expand the redundant NDAs instituted at the #Pentagon & other agencies.
