The federal dept of Health and Human Services has announced the suspension of all childcare service payments to the state of Minnesota, pending investigative review and compliance audits.
The announcement follows several grassroots reports showing extensive fraud and corruption stemming mostly from the Somali immigrant community. Several taxpayer-funded assistance programs have been exploited. From daycares to nonprofits, immigrant communities in Minnesota now face multiple accusations of fraud, where they allegedly used state policies to take what some estimate to be about $9 billion in taxpayer dollars.
There are numerous indications the Minnesota fraud is only the tip of the iceberg. Several states with large migrant population are also suspected of similar activity. The Dept of Homeland Security, Federal Bureau of Investigation and HHS are now doing compliance audits to determine the scale and scope of the overall theft.
