‘A Little Ironic’: Vance Calls Out Democrats Over Medicare Fraud
30th September 2026
Democrats on Tuesday for consistently criticizing health care costs without ever addressing the fraud that his task force is targeting.
Vance’s task force has found hundreds of billions of dollars in fraud, with millions stemming from health care.
“I always find it a little ironic when congressional Democrats, who say that they care a lot about Medicare, Medicare, [and the] working people who benefit these programs, don’t do anything to try to cut down on the fraud,” the vice president told Robert F. Kennedy Jr., secretary of the Department of Health and Human Services, during a fireside chat at the Make America Healthy Again Summit.
