Democratic AGs skip White House anti-fraud roundtable after late invite

Democratic state attorneys generals declined Vice President JD Vance’s White House anti-fraud roundtable after receiving an invitation on Friday with no agenda, arguing the notice was too short for meaningful participation; Republicans largely attended, with several Democrats planning a separate press conference, chiefs of staff representing Democratic offices, and Vance stressing a nonpartisan focus on fighting fraud. The event followed the administration’s push on fraud prevention and enforcement across programs like Medicaid and small‑business loans.
