Action 1 of 2024 urges legislators to DEMAND that FinCEN ensures that the process for whistleblowers aligns with U.S. anti-corruption priorities.
In December 2022, Congress passed the Anti-Money Laundering (AML) Whistleblower Improvement Act. The law establishes a whistleblower award program for individuals who report money laundering and sanctions violations. It is the most important anti-corruption law passed in decades.
Despite the urgent nature of this issue, the U.S. Treasury Department and Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FinCEN) have not implemented the AML Whistleblower Improvement Act. Action 1 of 2024 calls on FinCEN to enact AML regulations.
Money laundering is intimately tied to corruption around the globe. Because the AML Whistleblower Program has a transnational reach, whistleblowers do not need to be U.S. citizens to qualify for awards. The program helps U.S. authorities tackle corruption overseas, including the most pressing national security crises. For example, the war between Hamas and Israel, the war between Russia and Ukraine, terrorist financing, and drug trafficking. It is vital that FinCEN implement its whistleblower program quickly and that its regulations fulfill the mandate in the U.S. Strategy on Countering Corruption.

The scrutiny of Jefferson Parish Council candidates for the 2023 elections reveals potential abuses linked to the False Claims Act. Council members Jennifer Van Vrancken and Ricky Templet received significant contributions after securing taxpayer-backed loans, raising concerns about campaign finance abuses. Motion to Quash advocates for transparency and accountability.
Corruption Scorecards Jefferson Parish Councilman at Large Div. A by Tracie Burke | Motion to Quash LLC | October 6, 2023
Candidates for Jefferson Parish Councilman for the 2023 elections are being scrutinized under the False Claims Act. The False Claims Act is a federal law that imposes liability on those who defraud governmental programs. It is the federal government’s primary litigation tool in combating fraud against the government.
Corruption Scorecards Jefferson Parish Councilman at Large Div. A
Motion to Quash conducted an analysis of federal data. It showed Council members Jennifer Van Vrancken and Ricky Templet received over a half million dollars.
Over 350 entities made political contributions after receiving over $73 million dollars in taxpayer-backed SBA loans.
In both instances, candidates received large donations after companies they controlled, or companies owned by family members, obtained loans.
Frankie Hayers, the only other candidate, financed his own campaign.
Balcony Enterprises Inc, a family owned enterprise, received a total of $365,491 from the SBA. Afterward, The Balcony Ballroom issued a political contribution to Jennifer Van Vrancken of $5,000.
Hearing Health Care of Louisiana Inc, owned by family member Ryan Templet, received $186,812 from the Paycheck Protection Program. After receiving the taxpayer backed funds, Ryan Templet issued $5000 to Ricky Templet’s political campaign.
These funds were meant for struggling businesses. Generous campaign contributions just before or after receiving disaster assistance raises concerns about the legitimacy of their need for assistance. “It suggests the entities misled the SBA to obtain government funds and should be obligated to repay the taxpayers. Fraud schemes like this are the costliest for the taxpayers.” a spokesperson for Motion to Quash said.
Most Egregious Abuses of the PPP
The M2Q analysis identified two major abuses of the Paycheck Protection Program. These were Adams & Reese Law Firm and Harvey Gulf International Marine LLC.
Adams and Reese Law Firm received $9.2 million dollars from the taxpayer backed Paycheck Protection Program (PPP). Later, Adams and Reese and ARPAC issued nearly $800,000 in political contributions. This amount includes over $100,000 paid to its own Political Action Committee.
Harvey Gulf International Marine LLC received $8.8 million dollars from the Paycheck Protection Program. They then issued over $600,000 to political campaigns. This included $100,000 to the Republican Party and $100,000 to Louisiana Citizens for Job Creators Inc.
Recouping Stolen Pandemic Loan Funds
Motion to Quash is a powerful representation of the fight against corruption in Jefferson Parish. The Anti Corruption Scorecard serves as a reminder of the importance of transparency and honesty in our political system. The scorecards are adequate to give precise assessments. They offer reliable and sound judgment of campaign finance abuse. This is particularly useful for those interested in the 2023 Elections and the stand against corruption.
Contributions alone are not enough for an investigation. Nevertheless, generous campaign contributions and confidential disclosures submitted to the Inspector General are enough evidence to lead to criminal prosecutions.
“When the pandemic started, the SBA took on an outsized role in restarting our nation’s economy. The PPP and EIDL programs were vital to saving small businesses, but that fact does not excuse $200 billion in fraud,” explained Chairman Roger Williams (R-TX). “It’s a top priority of this Committee to recoup these stolen funds, and yesterday’s hearing looked at new, innovative private sector solutions to do just that. I’m very grateful for our four witnesses, and we’ll continue our work on holding these fraudsters accountable.”

An analysis by Motion to Quash LLC reveals corruption concerns among Louisiana House of Representatives candidates, with over $200 million in taxpayer-backed disaster assistance payments linked to political donations. The group’s anti-corruption scorecard shows varied scores among candidates, indicating issues in campaign finance and transparency ahead of the 2023 elections.
Corruption Scores Jefferson Parish House of Reps Election 2023 by Tracie Burke | Motion to Quash LLC | Sept. 22, 2023
According to an analysis of federal government data by Motion to Quash LLC., Louisiana House of Representatives received payments from over 100 entities. These payments amounted to over $200 million dollars in taxpayer-backed Disaster Assistance.
The investigation of loan fraud by PPP loan recipients and Louisiana lawmakers is alarming. Businesses issued large political donations after receiving taxpayer backed pandemic loans. This raises concerns about the legitimacy of their need for assistance.
“Loan recipients made campaign contributions after getting their awards. They should repay the loans,” a spokesperson for Motion to Quash said. “Fraud schemes like this are the costliest for the taxpayers.”

Tracie Burke | Motion to Quash LLC | May 30, 2023
I’m so grateful to be recognized, again, by the National Whistleblower Center! I remain committed to advocating for whistleblowers and spreading public awareness about the adversity we face.
On behalf of Motion to Quash LLC, I would like to extend a warm invitation to you for this year’s 10th Anniversary National Whistleblower Day event July 27th on Capitol Hill. The success of our past NWD events was dependent upon the support of people like you. We hope you will join us again this year for our celebration, which will include a live panel of whistleblowers, a speech from whistleblower supporter Senator Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa), and a discussion from National Whistleblower Center founder Stephen Kohn.
This live, in-person event on July 27th will honor the contributions of whistleblowers to our nation, and the storied history of whistleblowing in the U.S.
Hope to see you there! We can’t celebrate without you! Seats to this event are limited, so please R.S.V.P. HERE
The National Whistleblower Day campaign aims to make National Whistleblower Day permanent by urging President Biden to sign an Executive Order mandating that all federal agencies recognize July 30th as National Whistleblower Day. For more information and ways you can support the campaign, please visit:
National Whistleblower Day 2023 on Capitol Hill Why We Celebrate National Whistleblower Day
The history of National Whistleblower Day dates back to the founding days of our nation. On July 30th 1778, The U.S. Continental Congress passed America’s first whistleblower law during the height of the American Revolution. To honor this history and the foundational nature of of whistleblowing in America, we celebrate National Whistleblower Day every year on July 30th.
Senator Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa) signed the first National Whistleblower Day 10 years ago.Since then, NWC has supported an incredible group of whistleblowers and their bi-partisan allies in Congress to continue the NWD tradition.
In recognition of the sacrifices of whistleblowers, and in honor of the crucial contributions that whistleblowers have made to our democracy, Motion to Quash LLC stands with NWC wholeheartedly alongside the whistleblowers. We’re calling on both chambers of Congress and President Biden to permanently designate July 30 as National Whistleblower Day in the U.S. This is the single most important action the Federal Government can take to acknowledge the importance of whistleblowing and combating the culture of retaliation against whistleblowers.

I’m honored to be recognized on National Whistleblower Day 2022 by the National Whistleblower Center (NWC). This is my third year for disclosing public corruption, fraud, and misuse of public funds in Louisiana.
On July 30th, the United States celebrates National Whistleblower Day, the 244th anniversary of the country’s first whistleblower law. This year, we will celebrate with three days of live events.
Each year, the NWC holds an annual event to celebrate the accomplishments and impacts of notable whistleblowers. From across the political spectrum, speakers, participants, and the whistleblowers join together to recognize the importance of protecting whistleblowers.
Past speakers include Labor Secretary Marty Walsh, SEC Chair Gary Gensler, Senator Chuck Grassley, and Senator Tammy Duckworth. Dozens of different advocates, policymakers, and whistleblowers spoke on the full range of pressing whistleblower issues.
This year, the National Whistleblower Day program will span from July 28 through July 30th. Firstly, day 1 will focus on Legislators, Regulators, and government officials.

Integrity is a top issue facing Louisiana voters. Unfair business practices and long standing financial connections are breeding grounds for corruption. See how candidates score on integrity for the November 2021 Statewide/Multi-Parish Elections.
We based the candidate integrity scores on these three principles: Campaign Contributions Issued, Campaign Contributions Received, and Disclosures/Conflicts of Interest.
Click here to view the SCORECARD. You can download and print the complimentary spreadsheet. Click on the Grades Tab to view each Candidate’s folder.
METHODOLOGY
Candidates are graded on the number of critical issues for anti-corruption. These issues are listed in the candidate scorecard. They are divided into three overarching principles. We believe all of these issues are crucial for candidate integrity.
We assigned a total possible score of 5 for each principle. For the sake of consistency, we treat individual issues equally. Calculating fewer of these critical issues gets candidates a higher score. Only when they score 15 for the whole package do they score 100 percent.
We compiled candidate information from their campaign websites, in interviews, or from public and private sources.
Campaigns are dynamic. We welcome your feedback—if you see a candidate’s position has changed, send us an email to info@motiontoquash.org with the new information.

We made history! I attended the National Whistleblower Center’s (NWC) National Whistleblower Day celebration in July. It was a masterclass celebration honoring the amazing contributions of whistleblowers and I’m so grateful I was recognized.
Celebrating whistleblowers is not always fun. It takes determination and commitment to stand beside other whistleblowers against waste, fraud, and abuse. But, the monumental support at this National Whistleblower Day inspired me. I am confident that we can stand up and speak truthfully.
Largest and Most Prestigious National Whistleblower Day in History!
While more than 1000 people RSVP’d for National Whistleblower Day this year, even more showed up to join the celebration! Our 2021 National Whistleblower Day celebration had nearly 10,000 people in attendance, celebrating whistleblowers. Together, we made history.
The event featured Jan Turner, FBI Whistleblower, as the Mistress of Ceremonies. It also included more than 60 speakers. With over a dozen panels, it was the largest National Whistleblower Day event in history.

Celebrating Whistleblower Victories
Besides our unprecedented success at National Whistleblower Day, many pieces of whistleblower protection legislation were recently introduced:
The reintroduced Congressional Whistleblower Protection Act of 2021, by Sen. Dianne Feinstein (D-CA) in the U.S. Senate, would protect federal employees, current and former, right to petition or reveal information to Congress. NWC, joined by POGO, TAF, and WoA, issued a letter of support for this bill on July 28. Motion to Quash LLC firmly supports this bill.
Additionally, the Whistleblower Protection Improvement Act of 2021 (WPIA), introduced by a bipartisan group of Representatives led by Rep. Carolyn Maloney (D-NY), would strengthen whistleblower protections for federal employees who expose wrongdoing. They will have greater legal recourse against retaliation including access to a jury trial.
Finally, the IRS Whistleblower Program Improvement Act of 2021, introduced by Sens. Charles Grassley (R-IA) and Ron Wyden (D-OR), would help the integrity of our nation’s tax system. Namely, by strengthening and improving the IRS Tax Whistleblower Program. NWC, joined by TAF, POGO, and GAP, issued a letter of support on June 16.
Motion to Quash LLC thanks and recognizes the efforts of NWC, Sen. Dianne Feinstein, Rep. Carolyn Maloney, Sen. Charles Grassley, and Sen. Ron Wyden for introducing these important bills and for their continued support for whistleblowers.
