It’s illegal to fire someone who refuses to violate the law.

In California this is considered “ Wrongful Discharge in Violation of Public Policy” https://www.justia.com/trials-litigation/docs/caci/2400/2430... but it’s illegal in most states

Of course, you still have to have a lawyer and be able to win your lawsuit so no idea how much protection this actually gives a worker.
