The Office of Special Counsel is primarily responsible for safeguarding the &#8220;merit system by protecting federal employees and applicants from prohibited personnel practices, especially reprisal for whistleblowing,&#8221; its website states.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Biden previously nominated Dellinger as an assistant attorney general overseeing the Justice Department&#8217;s Office of Legal Policy, a position he held between October 2021 and June 2023.
