Fischbach On Feeding Our Future Scandal

Fischbach On Feeding Our Future Scandal

June 25, 2024 News -- KRJB-KRJM-KKCQ 0

Earlier this month, Minnesota 7th District Congresswoman Michelle Fischbach joined six other Republicans in the US House asking Minnesota Commissioner of Education Willie Jett for details on the Feeding Our Future scandal.  Over $250 million of COVID relief money was sent to Feeding Our Future with the idea the money would be used for food for hungry children.  But the money was stolen.  Five people have been found guilty of crimes associated with the case and 18 others have pleaded guilty.  Fischbach tells R&J News why Washington is interested in this case.

On Wednesday, Representative Fischbach will talk about the farm bill…and whether one will pass this year.
