ST. PAUL, Minn. — A Ramsey County judge is accusing Governor Tim Walz and the state education commissioner of making inaccurate statements about the $250 million ‘Feeding our Future’ fraud case.
Walz says the state stopped making payments to Feeding our Future when it suspected fraud, but the nonprofit sued, and a judge ordered payments be resumed.
Judge John Guthmann said in a statement Friday that he never ordered the Department of Education to resume payments. He says state educational officials voluntarily started making payments again.
48 people are under federal indictment for stealing a quarter-billion dollars from the federal meal program.
