President Donald Trump’s administration has expanded federal investigations into alleged fraud in Minnesota, citing a range of state programs and alleged involvement of immigrant communities. The Department of Justice reports 98 defendants charged, 64 convicted, and has issued more than 1,750 subpoenas, 130 search warrants and conducted over 1,000 witness interviews. The FBI is probing health‑care and home‑care providers; Homeland Security is conducting door‑to‑door investigations, having arrested more than 1,000 undocumented immigrants and identified over 1,300 potential fraud cases. The Department of Health and Human Services has halted certain childcare payments and is investigating Head Start programs. The Small Business Administration halted all grant program payments to Minnesota, and the Department of Agriculture has required recertification of SNAP recipients. Other agencies, including HUD and Labor, are also reviewing possible fraud.
