During an anti-fraud roundtable Wednesday, White House Domestic Policy Council Director Vince Haley outlined ten proposals aimed at combating fraud in welfare programs.
It steals the blessings and benefits of work,” Haley said.
Haley also suggested ending the practice of using “government-issued pre-populated forms to do automatic re-enrollments into Medicaid” and doubling the number of welfare fraud investigators.
Vance, who led the roundtable, urged members of Congress to codify anti-fraud measures into law, arguing that legislative action would help prevent the administration’s efforts from being undone in the future.
Although only Republican lawmakers attended the roundtable, Vance said he hoped Democratic members of Congress would also be willing to participate in the effort to combat welfare fraud.
