It’s an incredible honor to take the oath of office as the 50th Vice President of the United States. I look forward to working alongside President Trump to serve the American people. Let's Make America Great Again!
.@VP: "I'm proud to announce @USDOL has started dozens of subpoenas and investigations into foreign fraudsters who are trying to take advantage of the H-1B visa program... American jobs ought to go to American workers and not foreign fraudsters."
H-1B fraudsters are putting Americans in harm’s way — from factories to medical facilities.
@USLaborIG and @WHFraudTF have had enough. Fraud is a tax you never voted for — and we’re shutting it down.

"Because we cut down on fraudulent payments and fraudulent billing, we saved you $25 billion!"
American taxpayers are the most generous people in the world, funding programs that provide food and health care to their neighbors in need. @POTUS and @VP will not allow fraudsters to rob taxpayers and threaten our most vulnerable citizens.
Fraudsters are no longer getting rich off the generosity of American taxpayers.
@VP explains how criminal enterprises steal from Americans and the seniors who rely on Medicare--and how the Trump-Vance Administration is putting a stop to it.
.@VP: "We want the people who deserve these treatments, who need these treatments, to have access to them. If we spend all your money giving these treatments to fraudsters instead of giving them to the people who need them, then those programs aren't going to exist anymore."
.@VP on Iran: "The basic deal that we cut was 'we'll lift our blockade if you stop shooting at chips — but if you shoot at ships, we are going to punch back, and we're going to punch back harder than ever before.'"
