WATCH: Foxx Roasts Education Department for Severe, Repeated Audit Failures

Education and the Workforce Committee Chairwoman Virginia Foxx (R-NC), on the House Floor, called out the Biden-Harris Education Department for failing its third audit in a row.
 


Chairwoman Foxx’s Remarks:

“Mr. Speaker, the Biden-Harris Education Department has once again failed America’s hardworking taxpayers.

“For THREE years in a row the Education Department failed its audit. In other words, the Education Department has been unable to manage effectively, efficiently, or with any sense of accuracy, the resources entrusted to it. 

“Accuracy, transparency, and consistency are critical when it comes to managing finances. The Education Department has taken a different approach. Its student loan data was full of errors, and it made up estimates it could not defend to its auditor. 

“Bungling and bad budgeting appear to be the Education Department’s blueprint. I can’t tell if this is due to general ineptness or deliberate wasteful spending of taxpayer dollars. But I can tell you, it is an embarrassment. The American people deserve better.”
