EXCERPT:

ERNST: “We have seen massive amounts of fraud in Minnesota, California, Ohio, you name it. It exists everywhere. I am pushing a package on multiple — of multiple bills that would prevent fraud, allow us to claw back dollars that have been fraudulently used and we hope to see that package on the floor of the Senate very, very soon. We know that every single day we don’t pass this anti-fraud package, American taxpayers lose $1.4 billion to fraud. That’s every day, Stuart. 10 percent of our federal budget.”
