And the president and I talked about this a couple of months ago and said, what if we just did everything that we could to stop the fraud that's being committed against the American taxpayer?
The president said, great idea.
Let's do it.

in order to ensure that the state of Minnesota takes its obligations seriously to be good stewards of the American people's tax money.

What we're doing is we are stopping the federal payments that will go to the state government until the state government takes its obligations seriously
to stop the fraud that's being perpetrated against the American taxpayer.
