Vance announces White House found another $40 million in SNAP fraud

KENWOOD, Ohio — Vice President JD Vance announced Wednesday that the White House Task Force to Eliminate Fraud had identified $40 million in SNAP fraud and charged 40 people for their alleged schemes.

“That is one of the most important and sacred things that our tax dollars go to, making sure that our fellow citizens don’t go hungry at night,” Vance said at the Cincinnati FBI Field Office in Kenwood, Ohio. “Unfortunately, like with so many of these other amazing programs, we find that there are people out there who decide to commit fraud against these programs, who, quite literally, in this case, will steal from the mouths of hungry children in order to enrich themselves.”
