Minneapolis, MN — Congressional candidate Dalia Al-Aqidi today criticized the sentencing of two Feeding Our Future defendants, arguing that lenient penalties for major fraud schemes undermine public trust and fail hardworking taxpayers.
“These weren’t mistakes. These were deliberate schemes that stole from children’s food programs and from every taxpayer who funded them,” Al-Aqidi said. “When cheating a federal program costs you six months, it stops being a risk and starts being a business model for bad actors.”
