Minnesota state workers say leaders rejected years of fraud warnings
https://justthenews.com/nation/states/center-square/exclusive-minnesota-workers-say-leaders-rejected-years-fraud-warningsClaims from current and former Minnesota state employees that have been vetted by state lawmakers allege their bosses ignored and rebuked fraud warnings for years, retaliated against the employees who raised the alarms and protected leaders who oversaw the fraud-laden programs, according to a whistleblowers' letter obtained by The Center Square.
The claims are made in an unsigned letter to Congress as it investigates fraud schemes that bilked government assistance programs for hundreds of millions of dollars in the state.
Some employees claimed they were accused of racism, in part because the money was flowing to "diverse communities," the letter said. Most of those who have been federally indicted for the fraud schemes are of Somali descent.
Minnesota state Rep. Kristin Robbins – a Republican who leads a state investigation into the fraud and has communicated with the letter's authors –submitted the letter as part of her testimony to federal lawmakers this month. Its contents have not been previously reported.
Minnesota knew what was going on the whole time, They did nothing about it. The whole state is rotten.
