Watch: Brandon Gill Holds Hearing on Migrant Medicaid Fraud
Immigrant entrepreneurs are stealing billions of dollars from American taxpayers, Rep. Brandon Gill (R-TX) said as he began a Tuesday hearing on welfare fraud for the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform.
“America’s Medicaid system was designed to provide health care for low-income Americans … [yet] fraudsters and cheats are stealing billions in hard-earned American tax dollars,” said Gill, adding:
Recent reporting shows that many of the Somalian and Bhutanese communities commit a large portion, if not a majority, of home health Medicaid fraud in Ohio. It may not be the politically ripe thing to say, but we believe that is the truth.
For too long, our government allowed foreigners from low-trust societies with very little vetting to pour into our communities. Now, as elected officials, we can’t stand idly by as these fraudsters exploit our welfare system and get rich off of American taxpayers, and we can’t back down to fraud simply because of spurious accusations of racism.
