The numbers don’t lie. This isn’t political. This is widespread fraud wasting the tax dollars of hardworking Americans across our country. ➡️ $250 million stolen in Minnesota's Feeding Our Future scandal. Funds intended to feed hungry children were instead used to buy lakefront homes, Porsches, and jewelry. ➡️ $90 million stolen through Minnesota healthcare fraud schemes in the largest autism fraud case ever prosecuted. ➡️ $1.2 billion estimated cost of Medicaid fraud in Ohio alone. ➡️ $1.2 billion in false Medicare claims submitted by a couple in Arizona. ➡️ More than $600 million in suspected fraud tied to 447 hospices and 23 home health agencies suspended in Los Angeles. ➡️ $270 million in false reimbursement claims submitted by a California fraud defendant who later pleaded guilty. ➡️ $6.3 billion in suspected fraudulent government contracts identified by the Trump Administration's anti-fraud task force. ➡️ 562,000 fraudulent or delinquent pandemic loans referred by the Small Business Administration for enforcement action, totaling $22 billion. ➡️ More than $340 million in fraud schemes were targeted by the Department of Justice's National Fraud Enforcement Division in its first week alone.
