As this entire category of Forums
becomes larger in the collection,
it will become apparent to you how
to move and navigate from one place
to another to another if you are NOT
assisted at any one location.

If you file a complaint at one
office at the Dept. of Justice, and
they refuse to help you for no apparent
reason, then go ahead and file a
complaint at the Professional Misconduct
Office as listed below and make your
new complaint the fact that you
are not assisted in a legitimate
complaint under their jurisdiction.

One of the pieces to the puzzle of
the Dept. of Justice agency will
now be discussed here: DOJ's Public
Integrity Unit.

There is only one LINK below for this
and that is plenty as it goes directly
to their Jurisdiction page "in their
own words".

They are for sure, in the Criminal
Division, so if you get bounced at
all on complaints, it could be they
will say that your issue is Civil
in nature.

Use the complaint format I have
recommended in the Forums below
and proceed directly to this office
using the same Dept. of Justice
address in Washington, only to
the express Attn: Public Integrity Unit.

DOJ's Public Integrity is far reaching
and can take on all appointed and
elected officials at any level.

The way that translates into the
VA operations goes like this for
some examples:

** complaints on VA Inspector General

** complaints on VA Secretary and
all UnderSecretaries

** complaints on all BVA Judges and
the BVA Chairman.

** complaints on Irene Trowell-Harris
and the Center for Women Veterans

** complaints on Mark Brown, Director
of VA Environmental Health

** complaints on VA's Office of General
Counsel

** complaints on ALL state and county
VSO offices.

** complaints on ALL appointed Boards and
Commissions set up by the VA or Congress
including the Dole-Shalala Commission.

** complaints on all elected types at all
levels including "failure to equally
represent" allegations.

** All VARO and VAMC Directors

Use your imagination here, but draft
your complaints narrowly to fit the
jurisdiction authority. This layer
at the Justice Dept. sets up your
empowerment to go to the very next
highest layer at Congress if you get
nothing at all at DOJ.

This is an agency so mail delays do
not apply. However my own experience
tells me that they are severely backlogged
on in-processing and may take 4 to 6
weeks in generating an acknowledgement
letter to you on your case.

ATTN: VA EMPLOYEES

The office of Special Counsel is in crisis
as you all know. The alternative place
to file is here at the Dept. of Justice
Public Integrity Unit. However, please
stay focused on the fact that you may
not be protected by the federal Whistleblower
Act if you file at DOJ. What you can
do is simply generate a complaint that
the Special Counsel's Office is in
a state of crisis and you all have
matters to file under the Whistleblowers
Act and cannot get heard. That way
you are not revealing the content of
your VA complaints outside the protections
of the Whistleblower Act.
