Ron Wyden actually said...

"The Congress has to do everything it possibly can to eliminate both fraud and improper payments."

"What Senator Coats and I have sought to do all these years... is to try to clean out a lot of that junk."

"Let me begin by saying that nobody on this side of the aisle is ever going to back down from the challenge of fixing improper payments and fighting fraud."

"Setting standards for paid tax preparers has multiple benefits. Not only will it crack down on fraud, it is going to help cut down on improper Earned Income Tax Credit payments."
