A resolution to urge the United States Congress to swiftly pass House Bill 1156, the Pandemic Unemployment Fraud Enforcement Act, to ensure that federal and state authorities have sufficient time to hold fraudsters accountable and recover stolen taxpayer funds.

This House Resolution (HR 184) urges the U.S. Congress to pass H.R. 1156, the Pandemic Unemployment Fraud Enforcement Act. The resolution states that H.R. 1156 would extend the statute of limitations for prosecuting pandemic unemployment fraud from five to ten years, allowing federal and state authorities more time to investigate complex fraud cases - such as those involving identity theft or money laundering - and recover misused taxpayer funds. It references Michigan's estimated $8.5 billion in potentially fraudulent pandemic unemployment benefits as context for the need for extended enforcement. As a procedural resolution, HR 184 itself does not create new law but seeks to advance H.R. 1156.
