Minnesota Fraud
Posted on by dmartignetti

Matt discusses the Department of Health and Human Services’ (HHS) decision to freeze $185 million in child care funding for Minnesota due to allegations of fraud against Governor Tim Walz’s administration. The investigation, which began in 2021, has led to over 90 charges and the conviction of two leaders of a nonprofit. HHS alleges that Minnesota has allowed scammers to steal millions, prompting a demand for a comprehensive audit and new fraud reporting measures.
