What have you found, Dr. Oz?
Tell us, what is the most concerning to you?
Well, as a preamble, without a better visibility into where the money's spent, which we need technology to be able to do.
Or audits.
Well, audits are interesting.
You could audit the spreadsheet.
You can't tell if the input to the spreadsheet was legitimate unless you actually go and do site visits.
And states don't want to do that.
So let me just give the key- Are they blocking it, these states?
Of course.
First of all, let me just, I'll tell you, that's a good question.
Why would you let fraud happen?
It is by federal law, by federal law mandated that if you give a patient a welfare program, SNAP, Medicaid, you must also give them the ability to sign up to vote.
So you're basically recruiting voters at the same time you're giving them free government services, which then you might actually end up recruiting a different kind of voter.
Like you don't have a law that if you go to an NRA convention, right, for gun advocates that you sign up voters, right?
You can go to that event, not get signed up to vote.
Obviously, they will be probably skewing to the right.
So there is an issue there.
We also have an active role of unions.
Especially in California, where we have a major problem because the unions have seemed, this is all what I'm hearing from talking to people on the ground, seem to have gotten involved in, for example, signing up home health care workers and personal care services.
