New York’s AG Letitia James fiercely defends her office, highlighting over $627 million recovered and accusing the Inspector General of ignoring the unit’s focus on high-impact, complex cases. The funding freeze follows similar actions in Hawaii, Minnesota, and California, fueling accusations that this is political theater ahead of elections rather than genuine anti-fraud enforcement.
