A new bill proposing sweeping changes to the False Claims Act, including the elimination of several long-standing defenses to claims made under the Act, is being praised by whistleblower groups who say the measure would give added protection to taxpayers.
The bill, S. 2014, the "False Claims Act Correction Act of 2007," was introduced last month by Judiciary Committee chairman Sen. Patrick Leahy, D-Vt., and would expand the source of money that can be the subject of False Claims Act claims, extending coverage to claims of fraud committed against recipients of Social Security or other federal funds.
