Chairman McCaskill holds the first hearing of the Subcommittee on Contracting Oversight on the subject of fraud in government agencies. She questions Inspectors General on the tools they need to root out fraud.
I appreciate your position on this matter. I read that states, counties and communities are given money they dont need or is misdirected. $550,000 in stimulus funds for a skating park in Pawtucket, RI, a community on the verge of bankruptcy, is highly suspect. Especially when the community had to cut city jobs this year. As a taxpayer, I want to know how much each job created is going to cost. Other communities are rejecting stimulus money for similar reasons. What is going on?
