H.R. 10326: PROOF Act
Sponsor
Jefferson Van Drew
Republican · NJ-2
What H.R. 10326 does
The Preventing Rip-offs and Obtaining Oversight of Funds Act, or PROOF Act, would require states to give the Department of Justice information it needs to investigate or prosecute fraud in federally funded programs. Covered programs include Medicaid, the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP), Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF), certain coronavirus response payments and grants to states, and any other program Justice identifies as vulnerable to fraud.
Federal agencies could use the information only for law enforcement related to fraud, and could not share it for unrelated administrative or commercial purposes. Justice would have to report to Congress each year on how many requests it made, for which programs, and how many fraud investigations and convictions resulted.
