Minnesota Governor Tim Walz and Attorney General Keith Ellison testified before the House Oversight Committee regarding a significant fraud scandal involving the state’s education department and the Trump administration’s immigration policies. The committee’s report accused them of covering up fraud and retaliating against whistleblowers. Walz defended his administration’s actions and criticized federal immigration enforcement, claiming it harmed local efforts to address fraud. Republicans, including committee chair Rep. James Comer, called for sworn depositions, questioning Walz and Ellison’s knowledge of the fraud and their leadership accountability.
