We’re fighting the fraudsters stealing food from American children and families in need.
The charges announced yesterday send a clear message: If you defraud the American people, you will be brought to justice. 🇺🇸
“SNAP fraud despicably robs from low-income Americans that rely on the program for food assistance and diverts taxpayer funds to line the pockets of fraudsters and bankroll other criminal activities like guns and drugs that make American communities less safe. No more! USDA OIG is committed to support Vice President Vance’s leadership to disrupt fraud schemes and send criminals straight to prison. I am honored to stand with Vice President Vance today and grateful for our special agents whose work as part of this nationwide surge brought significant law enforcement actions against fraudsters in dozens of cases across the country. This surge is only the beginning. USDA OIG will continue to unite behind our partners in the whole-of-government fight to eliminate fraud and hold fraudsters to account,” said USDA Inspector General John Walk.

“Mr. Vice President, thank you for your leadership against fraud on the American taxpayer. USDA's Office of Inspector General has been a proud part of your whole of government fight to eliminate fraud. Our law enforcement agents have worked tirelessly across the country from Seattle to Miami, Jackson, Mississippi to Cleveland, Ohio to disrupt fraud, restore integrity to federal programs, and arrest criminal fraudsters who steal from hardworking American taxpayers. SNAP fraud despicably robs from low-income Americans that rely on the program for food assistance and diverts taxpayer funds to line the pockets of fraudsters and bankroll other criminal activities. Drugs, guns, transnational organized crime. We've known that some of this money has gone to terrorist organizations. No more, Mr. Vice President.” – USDA Inspector General John Walk
@WHFraudTF @VP @SecRollins @DepSecVaden
Under @POTUS' leadership, USDA is protecting taxpayer dollars and holding those who exploit the system accountable.
SNAP benefits are meant to feed vulnerable Americans, NOT line the pockets of fraudsters.
@OIGUSDA Inspector General John Walk, @DepSecVaden, and USDA are proud to stand alongside @VP in this fight.
If you steal from the American taxpayer, you WILL be brought to justice. 🇺🇸

“The human cost of these fraud schemes is measured not in spreadsheets, but in the panic of a mother whose card is declined and the hunger her children endure because someone hijacked their benefits,” said @AAGMcDonald. “These schemes inflict real harm on real American families, and they erode the trust taxpayers place in programs designed to keep Americans fed. That is why the Fraud Division is acting with urgency, not just to prosecute fraud, but to protect the people who depend on these lifelines.”

“These schemes siphoned millions from taxpayers and robbed struggling Americans of the benefits they depend on so fraudsters could use them for their own selfish purposes,” said @AGToddBlanche. “Through our partnership with the Department of Agriculture, this nationwide surge exposed and disrupted criminal networks that targeted vulnerable American families. The Department of Justice will continue working to root out fraud in every federal agency and program.”

.@AAGMcDonald in Ohio with @VP on SNAP Fraud: "There is no more noble or compassionate taxpayer-funded program than those provided by @USDA: food for hungry children and relief for moms and dads struggling to put dinner on the table tonight. If ever a fraudster might say, 'Those dollars do too much good. They protect too many vulnerable kids and parents. These dollars are too noble for me to take,' it would be SNAP. But there is no program too noble for a fraudster. They will take whatever they can, no matter the financial cost or the human toll."

"This is a concerted effort to literally take food out of the mouths of children, and it's going to stop."

We are activating the full tools of justice to bring accountability to those stealing from these programs and the American taxpayer.
.@AAGMcDonald: "These cases and allegations reveal the scope of deception, greed, and human exploitation permeating SNAP fraud schemes. These are not paperwork crimes. The tools of justice must be, and are, fully activated to protect the innocent, provide for our most vulnerable, punish the wrongdoer, and restore the public’s confidence that those who engage in fraud will indeed be brought to justice."
What a day to be an American! Thank you to @VP Vance, @AGToddBlanche, @AFergusonFTC, @AAGMcDonald, @NDGAnews U.S. Attorney Teddy Hertzberg, @OIGUSDA John Walk, and @WHFraudTF for coming out to Cincinnati to highlight the important work our prosecutors and agents are doing to combat SNAP fraud across the country.

Right back at you, Scott! We wouldn’t be taking the fight to fraud as effectively as we are without your outstanding leadership of and dedication to the @WHFraudTF. Many thanks to you and your excellent team.
Leadership matters. @USAttyGerace is a standout in this class of Trump US Attorneys. The West Point grad and former Army Armor Captain is aggressively leading the charge against fraud for @SDOHnews ⚔️⚖️ 🇺🇸
