Issues: Legislative Branch Criminal Justice

"Though Ms. Naeher told Committee staff that this occurred prior to the beginning of Leidos's contract, the assault allegation was received in January 2020. Therefore, Leidos' statement to Congress regarding "zero allegations of sexual assault' from May 2017 to April 2022 is untrue. We invite Leidos to correct the record via a letter providing an accurate accounting of reports of sexual harassment and assault.

Anything short of clear instruction to employees and subcontractors to cooperate with the OIG is unacceptable. It is vital that all Leidos and subcontracted employees are made aware of the resources available to them and encouraged to engage with the NSF OIG."
