🚨 @HouseCommerce just released an 84-page staff report detailing how fraudsters have been stealing from Medicare and Medicaid in states across the country, and what can be done to stop it in its tracks. While Democrats have turned a blind eye, Republicans are fighting to protect the Americans who need these programs the most. Read the full report here ⬇️ d1dth6e84htgma.cloudfront.ne…

This investment from @POTUS and @VP directly complements @HouseCommerce's program integrity package, 'Continuing the Fight Against Fraud,' to PROTECT vulnerable Americans, critical programs, and precious taxpayer dollars. Promises made, promises kept.
.@POTUS: Today, I'm thrilled to announce the Fraud Whistleblower Incentive Program. Americans will now be able to report cases of corruption and theft of taxpayer dollars in their communities via a new website — and they'll be given a commission of one percent.

Investing in our health care workforce is one of the most important pillars of the RHT Program. Thank you, @POTUS, @SecKennedy and @DrOzCMS, for continuing to uplift rural America 🇺🇸
The Trump Administration announced $16.4 million in Rural Health Transformation Program funding to address critical healthcare workforce shortages and improve access to care. This investment will support projects ready for rapid deployment that train new healthcare workers, expand apprenticeships, and help rural communities recruit and retain skilled professionals across Maryland.

My bipartisan Critical Infrastructure Manufacturing Feasibility Act was just signed by President Trump and is now law! This legislation lays the groundwork for bringing manufacturing back to the U.S. and creating good-paying jobs for Iowans. I’m proud to have led this legislation to put American jobs first! 🇺🇸

Today, @POTUS signed two bills led by @RepMMM and @RepDavidValadao strengthening domestic manufacturing and protecting Americans from fraudulent actors on online dating platforms. Republicans are delivering on strengthening good-paying jobs and keeping Americans safe online.

As a member of the Energy and Commerce Committee, I'm committed to rooting out waste, fraud, and abuse. In under a 90 day period, we took swift and decisive action against 50 high-risk Medicaid providers, halting over $203 million in potentially improper payments. This protects your tax dollars and ensures resources are spent on those who truly need it.

Every dollar stolen by fraudsters is a dollar taken from patients who need care. @HouseCommerce Republicans have a package of bills to crack down on Medicaid fraud and protect vulnerable Americans. ✅

Under the Biden-Harris Administration, fraud was allowed to run rampant in the programs meant to help the most vulnerable Americans. Now, thanks to @POTUS and the @WHFraudTF, we’re putting an end to this fraud that steals from Americans in need to ensure they can access the benefits and care they deserve. washingtonexaminer.com/polic…

Iowa taxpayers work hard to fund programs for those who truly need them, and fraudsters should never get a dime of it. That's why I signed the Vice President's Pledge to Protect Americans from Fraud. I will always fight to stop fraud before payments go out the door, protect seniors and the vulnerable from scammers, and make sure those who cheat the system face justice. 🇺🇸

We’re with you @VP! Every penny lost to fraud is one less that can benefit Americans in need. @HouseCommerce Republicans are taking action to stop health care fraud and protect vulnerable Americans so they can access the benefits they deserve.
Do you hate fraud? If so, I’m calling on you to join me in taking the pledge to protect Americans from fraudsters, by doing everything in your power to ensure that: 1. Vulnerable Americans, such as the elderly, indigent, and disabled, are protected from fraudsters who seek to prey on them. 2. Taxpayer-funded programs serve law-abiding Americans, not illegal aliens or fraudsters. 3. Taxpayer-funded benefits are not used by fraudsters to buy mansions or luxury cars. 4. Public agencies and officials work tirelessly and aggressively, coordinating at all levels of government, to stop fraud before payments go out the door. 5. Fraudsters face justice for their crimes in a court of law. Convicted fraudsters will be imprisoned and barred from ever receiving another penny of taxpayer dollars. 6. Illegal alien fraudsters are promptly arrested, prosecuted, imprisoned, and deported, never able to take advantage of Americans’ generosity again.

Easy yes from me! Proud to sign @VP’s pledge to fight fraud. The @WHFraudTF and @HouseGOP have been laser-focused on ensuring American taxpayer dollars are not stolen by scammers. I’ve been leading this effort on @HouseCommerce by introducing the Strategic Task Force on Scam Prevention Act, which passed Committee and will soon head to the House floor. Protecting Americans and their hard-earned dollars from scams and fraud is a priority I’ll keep fighting for.

Republicans in Congress agree: fraudulently taking advantage of federal health care programs is WRONG! Thank you Dr. Oz and @HHSGov for working to protect these benefits, stop fraud and support our vulnerable populations.
SIGNED! ✍️🇺🇸 @VP Vance’s Pledge to Protect Americans from Fraud is a commonsense commitment, and I was glad to sign it. CMS will continue working with the @WHFraudTF to protect Americans, safeguard their benefits, and save taxpayers billions of dollars.
