I will continue fighting fraud in federal benefit programs to ensure benefits go to law-abiding citizens rather than illegal aliens or fraudsters.

Fighting fraud has been one of my top priorities in Congress, and I remain committed to rooting it out wherever it hides.

Pfluger repeats his commitment to combat benefits fraud and keep benefits from illegal aliens and fraudsters.
