The legal framework protecting whistleblowers in the U.S.

The modern-day False Claims Act protects whistleblowers who point out fraud and abuse in government. John Phillips, who helped author the law, joins Hari Sreenivasan to discuss the rights whistleblowers have. Phillips is a founding partner at the law firm Phillips and Cohen and a former ambassador to Italy under the Obama administration.
