The House will consider three pieces of legislation dealing with fraud at the federal and state level that are scheduled to reach the floor when members return Monday. 

The bills include requirements on data-sharing between state and local governments, providing funds to prevent fraudulent health payments, and creating an assistant attorney general to lead the DOJ's efforts to clamp down on fraud, the Daily Caller reported. 

House Majority Leader Steve Scalise told the Daily Caller that "fraudsters" had stolen billions in taxpayer dollars from federal programs meant to help Americans in need, while Democrats "looked the other way." 

Vice President JD Vance said in August that the federal government needed Congress’ cooperation to take certain actions to address fraud, including data sharing between federal and state governments. Scalise said that the legislation is a response to that request. 

"Accountability is coming for anyone trying to defraud the American people," Scalise told the Daily Caller.
