I am working with my colleagues to end the waste, fraud, and abuse in our federal programs across the country... I will continue to work with my colleagues to protect the integrity of Hoosiers’ tax dollars and ensure such widespread fraud never happens again.
Continue working with colleagues to end waste, fraud, and abuse in federal programs and protect the integrity of Hoosiers' tax dollars.
Occurrences
Evidence
Baird's official House site still shows recent legislative activity from April 2026, including an April 16 yes vote on H.R. 6398, the RED Tape Act, and an April 17 vote on H.Res. 1175 tied to H.R. 8035, along with an April 14 press release on STEM diplomacy legislation.
The Justice Department filed a civil lawsuit alleging fraud in New York's Medicaid home-care program and described the case as part of a broader federal effort to combat waste and abuse in government programs.
Assessments
The evidence shows Baird remained active in Congress during the same term, but it does not identify a specific legislative or executive action by him that meaningfully advanced ending waste, fraud, and abuse in federal programs or protecting Hoosiers' tax dollars. The DOJ fraud case is unrelated to his own conduct, so there is no basis for full delivery or partial credit.
