Minnesota House Republicans propose fraud prevention measures

Star Tribune

Seeking to curb fraud in government programs, Minnesota House Republicans unveiled a plan Tuesday to establish a new Office of Inspector General, track whether agencies are implementing audit recommendations and require state employees to report suspected fraud to law enforcement and legislators.

The GOP proposals come as the FBI investigates fraudulent Medicaid claims in Minnesota’s autism program and after the nonprofit Feeding Our Future and other organizations stole $250 million during the pandemic from a federally funded meals program for children. The two cases have amplified concerns about fraud in state-run programs, prompting Gov. Tim Walz to propose his own fraud prevention measures.
