"We, the undersigned whistleblower advocacy organizations, write to urge you to pass legislation this Congress to overturn Department of the Navy v. Egan1 and to explicitly authorize judicial review of agency security clearance decisions. Since this 1988 Supreme Court decision, administrations of both parties have erroneously cited Egan to argue in favor of largely unchecked executive branch authority over security clearance decisions, and some federal courts have misinterpreted the holding and scope of Egan, with deleterious consequences."

"Since then, courts and government officials have argued that Egan supports the president's extremely broad, even unfettered discretionary powers in matters of national security. Such an interpretation would support the argument that the president could revoke security clearances for whatever reason. Thus, the matter of whether the security clearance was revoked for political reasons or because the holders had attempted to "monetize" the clearance, such as by writing a tell-all book, would be irrelevant."
