NPR: She raised concerns about her company's contracts with ICE. Then she lost her job

NPR reports that, after two decades with the company, Billie Little lost her job for challenging Thomson Reuters’s Immigration and Customs Enforcement contracts. Little and other colleagues had grown alarmed that Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents could be abusing Thomson Reuters' investigative tools. "Little was part of a committee of employees who sent a letter to company management in February, flagging that ICE might be using the company's products unlawfully. They requested more transparency about the company's oversight of its contracts with the Department of Homeland Security and ICE. Shortly after this effort became public, Thomson Reuters fired Little."

Little is suing the company, claiming that her dismissal violated an Oregon law that prohibits employers from firing whistleblowers.
