"I'm not here to be your prop for your obsession. Rep. Nancy Mace asked Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz to define what a woman is while questioning him at a hearing in front of the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee. Walz refused to do so, characterizing the question as part of Mace's personal agenda rather than legitimate legislative inquiry."
"The people of Minnesota have been singled out and targeted for political retribution at an unparalleled scale, including blocking Medicaid reimbursements to our state just last week. The Trump administration blocked $260 million in Medicaid funding to Minnesota, straining medical providers and poorer patients statewide, according to Walz's opening statement at the hearing."
"Let me be clear: In Minnesota, if you defraud public programs, if you steal taxpayer money, we'll find you, we'll prosecute you, we'll convict you, and we'll throw you in jail. Walz stated this in his opening remarks while sitting near Minnesota's Attorney General Keith Ellison, who is prosecuting approximately 100 individuals accused of stealing hundreds of millions through fraudulent billing schemes."
Rep. Nancy Mace (R-SC) questioned Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz (D) at a House Oversight and Government Reform Committee hearing, asking him to define what a woman is. Walz refused, stating he would not be used as a prop for Mace's obsession. The committee summoned Walz to discuss mass welfare fraud in Minnesota, where approximately 100 individuals stole hundreds of millions in taxpayer funds through fraudulent billing schemes. Walz countered that Minnesota faced political retribution, citing the Trump administration's blocking of $260 million in Medicaid funding. The federal government conditioned fund release on Minnesota implementing a corrective action plan, while Minnesota sued, arguing the withholding illegally punishes vulnerable patients relying on Medicare-funded community providers.
