A Democratic Virginia lawmaker is backing a bill that would ban the state from verifying a nonprofit’s eligibility to provide and receive federal taxpayer benefits, a move that comes as scrutiny over the misuse of taxpayer funds continues to intensify.
The introduction of House Bill 1369 by Virginia Democratic state Del. Jessica Anderson came in the wake of a massive fraud scandal involving nonprofits in Minnesota and amid pressure by the Trump administration for states to enact better oversight of how taxpayer money is spent.
"No state agency responsible for the administration of federal funds shall impose a requirement on a nonprofit charitable organization providing a federal public benefit to determine, verify, or otherwise require proof of eligibility of any applicant for such benefits," the one-page bill states.
Fox News Digital has reached out to Anderson's office.
The scrutiny over taxpayer funds doled out to nonprofits has increased following the burgeoning fraud scandal in Minnesota in which billions of dollars were lost due to fraud tied to the state's Somali community.
In December, the Justice Department announced that at least 78 people had been charged in the "Feeding Our Future" scandal – named for the Somali-linked nonprofit that allegedly bilked the coffers of St. Paul, Minnesota and Washington.

🎶”…Yeah, it’s bad, bad, bad, bad, baaad… It’s nation-wide…”🎶
Auditors are racists.
Bookkeeping is racist.
This violates the Supremacy Clause.
Investigate this scumbag first.
‘Jessica Anderson’
Can you say AWFUL ?
Not even hiding it, they are legalizing theft of taxpayer monies.
Check this fraud supporter’s financial records.....
An AWFUL likely doing awful things with hard-earned taxpayers’ money...
Virginian “MEN” need to zip up their flies before they vote. Stop voting for feminazi piglettes’. This ho is going to cost you lots of big bucks. I hope y’all are getting some good money from disability.
Hey Jessica...why the long face?
“”nonprofit’s eligibility to provide and receive federal taxpayer benefits””
WHY is the smartest solution never attempted? STOP THE FEDERAL FUNDS...let the states spend their money the way they want to - feds stay out of it!!!!
If this passes I think we should start a FR NGO, get a grant for counseling alienated voters and help ourselves to Virginia taxpayer’s $ - after all - they voted for this.
I also think zero federal funds should go to these “non-profits”. Let the states deal with the consequences of the stealing they enabled..
Tell me you’re committing fraud without telling me you’re committing fraud.
They know it’s nation wide.
The really scary part is that this insane woman is the future of the Democrat Party.
Old-school Democrats like JFK and Carter, they just don’t exist anymore.
How many ways do Democrats need to admit their stealing American Taxpayer Dollars ? After the efforts of DOGE we know their all theives !
Shocking a demonrat who wants no oversight
