加利福尼亚州国会女议员杨提出法案，拟成立联邦欺诈问题跨部门特别工作组

加利福尼亚州众议员金扬将于周一提出一项法案，旨在整合联邦反欺诈机构，并严厉打击州和地方层面的浪费与滥用行为。

杨在接受《加州邮报》独家采访时表示，无论是联邦调查局（FBI）、国土安全部还是美国国税局（IRS）等金融机构，都在“互相掣肘，而诈骗犯却趁机大肆得手”。

杨表示："我们将采取统一指挥、统一策略和统一目标，即打击欺诈行为、破除官僚主义，为纳税人追回资金。这需要所有联邦机构协同合作，以便调查涉及联邦资金的欺诈案件。"

根据该法案摘要，《反诈骗法案》将要求唐纳德·特朗普总统在法案颁布后90天内成立一个联邦欺诈问题跨部门特别工作组，并在180天内任命一名负责人。

除将联邦反欺诈机构集中到一个中心外，该特别工作组还将通过数据和资源共享与州及地方执法部门进行协调。目前尚不清楚该工作组将配备多少成员。

杨表示："一个机构，这就是我正在考虑的方案"，并补充说该机构将配备"曾从事此类工作的资深执法人员"。

杨表示，该法案的推动力源于她目睹了加利福尼亚州猖獗的欺诈行为，她将加州称为“世界欺诈之都”。

这位加利福尼亚州共和党人表示：'这种现象始于新冠疫情时期，当时人们甚至不愿重返工作岗位，因为他们认为领取失业救济金比回去工作更划算。而这仅仅是个开始。'

加利福尼亚州州长加文·纽瑟姆多次驳斥了关于该州欺诈行为猖獗的说法。此前，联邦医疗保险和医疗补助服务中心管理员穆罕默德·奥兹博士声称，洛杉矶纳税人正在为一个价值数十亿美元的医疗保健计划提供资金。

加文·纽瑟姆的办公室在社交媒体X上发文称，自2022年起，纽瑟姆已禁止所有新开设的临终关怀机构，并吊销了280多张执照。

杨（Young）向《华盛顿邮报》表示，将打击欺诈、浪费和滥用职权的任务整合到一个机构下，将“首次让美国老年人、学生、退伍军人及家庭优先于犯罪分子、非法移民和诈骗犯受到重视”。

California Rep. Kim Young will introduce a bill Monday to centralize federal fraud agencies and crack down on waste and abuse at the state and local levels.

Whether its the FBI, Homeland Security or financial institutions like the IRS, theyre all tripping over each other while scammers run up the score, Young told The California Post in an exclusive interview.

Were gonna have one quarterback on the field, one game plan and one goal, and that is to stop the fraud, cut through the bureaucracy and win back taxpayers money, Young said. It will require coordination across all different federal agencies so that they can investigate fraud involving federal dollars.

The No More Scams Act would require President Donald Trump to establish a federal fraud interagency task force within 90 days of enactment and to appoint a director within 180 days, according to a summary of the bill.

In addition to centralizing the federal fraud agencies into one hub, the task force would coordinate with state and local law enforcement through data and resource sharing. It is unclear how many members will staff the task force.

One agency, that is what Im looking at, Young said, adding that it will be staffed with experienced law enforcement individuals who have done this kind of work.

Young said the catalyst behind the bill was witnessing what she described as rampant fraud in California, calling her state the fraud capital of the world.

It started from the COVID days and people didnt even want to go back to work because they thought unemployment benefits were larger than going back and working, the California Republican said. Thats just beginning of it.

California Governor Gavin Newsom has frequently pushed back on claims of rampant fraud in his state, most recently in light of Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services Administrator Dr. Mehmet Dr. Oz declaring taxpayers are fueling a multi-billion dollar health care scheme in Los Angeles.

Gavin Newsom banned all new hospices beginning in 2022 and revoked 280+ licenses, Newsoms office said in a post on X.

Young told the Post that streamlining the mission of fighting fraud, waste and abuse under one agency will allow American seniors, students, veterans, and families to for once be prioritized over criminals, illegal aliens, and fraudsters.
