Waste, Fraud, and Abuse

[Ziggy]

Time to get to work.
There are a lot of Hearings going on in Congress now that they are back from another vacation.
And most of these hearings are not seen on TV, but they are being streamed on Ytube.
The Hearing I am currently watching right now is:

Fraud Prevention: Understanding Fraud in Federally Funded Programs Run by the States​

To see what Congress will be doing on a daily basis, you can go to:

And they have a calendar which shows what committees and hearings they are having.
This is what Today looks like.
