Congressman Pete Stauber invites Nick Shirley to State of the Union Address

Shirley Childcare Center StillWASHINGTON D.C. — Congressman Pete Stauber has invited Conservative YouTube creator Nick Shirley as one of his guests at President Trump’s State of the Union address tomorrow.

In a viral video last year, Shirley made claims that Somali-run day cares were committing fraud by inflating enrollment numbers to get more money from the state.

However, some of his claims have been proven false, while others were already under investigation, according to The Minnesota Department of Children, Youth and Families.

Stauber has also invited David Hoch, who was featured in the YouTube video.

“President Trump and the Republican-run Congress have taken great strides this past year to eliminate waste, fraud, and abuse. In that spirit, Nick and David embody the citizen-driven oversight that makes these reforms possible. It is an honor to bring them both to the State of the Union as a reminder to every American that the federal government under President Trump is committed to ending the abuse of programs meant to help working families and the most vulnerable,” said Congressman Pete Stauber (R).

The State of the Union address is Tuesday, Feb. 24.
