Minnesota Officials Questioned Over Audio Evidence in Feeding Our Future Fraud Hearing

During a House Oversight Committee hearing on Minnesota's Feeding Our Future fraud scandal, Republican lawmakers intensely questioned Attorney General Keith Ellison and Governor Tim Walz. Lawmakers cited audio recordings suggesting Ellison assured support to individuals later charged in a multi-billion-dollar fraud involving federal pandemic aid. Ellison denied wrongdoing, while critics demanded accountability amid ongoing federal investigations and congressional funding freezes related to the misuse of social services funds.
