The National Security Whistleblowers Coalition was set up by Sibel Edmonds to try to help fellow Whistleblowers[1], in league with over 50 former and current United States government officials from more than a dozen agencies, is an independent, nonpartisan alliance of whistleblowers who have come forward to address weaknesses of US security agencies.
NSWBC is made up of current and former employees of the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA), the Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA), the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA), the Department of Energy (DOE), the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), the Federal Reserve, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) (including the Transportation Security Administration (TSA)), the National Security Agency (NSA), the Department of State, and others. The organization has collectively testified before Congressional committees in the U.S. House of Representatives and Senate to demand that Congress act to end government retaliation against those who expose corruption, misdeeds and errors in the realm of U.S. national security.

| Member | Description |
|---|---|
| Bill Bergman | |
| Steve Bigelow | US Air Force whistleblower who exposed MICC corruption. |
| Thomas Bittler | TSA whistleblower, dismissed along with Ray Guagliardi. |
| John Carman | Set up a website about his experience of corruption in the US/Customs and Border Protection |
| Bogdan Dzakovic | A 14-year veteran of the Security Division of the Federal Aviation Administration who warned his superior that the air security system was next to useless, but was not heeded. |
| Sibel Edmonds | Sibel Edmonds was recruited by the FBI as a translator in the wake of 9/11. She quickly turned whistleblower when she discovered security breaches, cover-ups and malpractice at numerous levels. The US government has made her "the most gagged person in the history of the United States". |
| Daniel Ellsberg | A feted whistleblower who exposed some details of how the US government was waging the Vietnam War. The fact that he was not persecuted has lead several commentators to suggest that he may not in fact have been all he appears to be. Specifically, the Pentagon Papers may have been a limited hangout. |

| John Hnatio | US nuclear whistleblower |
| Karen Kwiatkowski | Former Pentagon staffer who has exposed the lies of the Pentagon. |

| David MacMichael | CIA whistleblower who went public with information that the Reagan Administration was planning a coup d’état against the Nicaraguan government. |
| Ray McGovern | Raymond McGovern is a former CIA veteran who chaired National Intelligence Estimates and personally delivered intelligence briefings to Presidents Ronald Reagan and George H. W. Bush, their Vice Presidents, Secretaries of State, the Joint Chiefs of Staff etc. |
| Michael Nowacki | |
| Sandy Nunn | |
| Paul Price | US whistleblower who worked as a language analyst for the NSA. |
| William H. Russell | NSA whistleblower. |
| Michael Springmann | Head of the visa section in Saudi Arabia, who blew the whistle on the granting of visas for training of terrorists and was fired as a result. |
