WASHINGTON, D.C. – Today, May 7, 2026, U.S. Representative Warren Davidson (OH-08) released the following statement after a Daily Wire investigation revealed widespread Medicaid fraud across Ohio. The investigation found that Ohio’s Medicaid program paid out roughly $1 billion in 2024 for “home health services,” often provided by people with no health care training and in many cases by relatives of Medicaid recipients.
 
“Minneapolis was just the tip of the iceberg of waste, fraud, and abuse,” said Davidson. “This investigation confirms what many of us have long suspected - that there is widespread Medicaid fraud nationwide. I applaud President Trump for leading the charge to root out this abuse, and Congress must follow through with reforms to hold fraudsters accountable and return wasted money to taxpayers.”
