Fraudsters beware. Jail Time. Restitution. Suspension from Government Programs. These are among the fates of those who were caught stealing from the American taxpayers. No amount of fraud is too small to be investigated by the Trump Administration. Happy Halloween!

A federal judge in Florida ordered two individuals to pay more than $30 million in restitution and penalties for allegedly defrauding more than 9,000 people in a scam involving crytocurrencies and precious metals, the US CFTC said

This is outrageous.Trump’s corrupt pardons have wiped out at least $119 million in court-ordered restitution owed to crime victims—from small businesses to everyday people who were defrauded. While wealthy donors and connected fraudsters walk free, the people they hurt are left with nothing. The American people deserve better. Op: @phillydefranco

Thousands of mothers are stuck on probation or parole just because they can’t afford to pay off their restitution, fines, and fees. While on probation they are at constant risk of being returned to prison or jail- not for committing a new crime but for technical violations like missing a meeting with their probation officer. In celebration of Mother’s Day, I’ve partnered with @MichaelRubin to pay off the remaining restitution of more than 50 mothers across the country to give these women the second chance they’ve earned. Thank you Danielle, Drew, and Tarlexus for sharing your stories with us.   We can fix this broken system but need your support to join the movement visit @REFORM and thank you @jessicajackson

Wildfire survivors and small business owners have already lost enough. They shouldn’t have to keep fighting for the restitution they’re owed. Today, I joined survivors, local business owners, and community leaders in Santa Rosa to call on Governor Newsom to sign AB 2700, the Fire Victim Restitution and Recovery Act. My legislation passed the Legislature with unanimous bipartisan support. It’s common sense: victims deserve to be made whole, and the utility responsible should be held accountable. Governor Newsom should sign AB 2700.

"This sentence sends a clear message — if you take advantage of vulnerable populations to steal from the American taxpayer, you will pay the price.” – @AAGMcDonald A Phoenix woman was sentenced to 14 years in prison AND ordered to pay nearly $55M in restitution for fraudulently billing Arizona Medicaid more than $69M in less than a year for addiction treatment therapy. 🔗:
