Palmer | P000609 | palmer.house.gov | palmer | https://palmer.house.gov/media-center/press-releases | scraper | For Immediate Release Media Contact: Hope Martin (202) 225-4921 WASHINGTON, D.C. – Today, Representative Gary Palmer (AL-06)’s bill, H.R. 8467, the Zeroing Out Monetary Benefits Improperly Expended (ZOMBIE) Act, passed the House of Representatives. The ZOMBIE Act aims to prevent government waste, fraud, and abuse by taking proactive steps to limit improper payments by government agencies. Following passage of the bill, Rep. Palmer released the following statement: “For too long, billions of taxpayer dollars have been lost to improper payments and fraud because federal agencies have failed to identify risks before money goes out the door. The House passage of the ZOMBIE Act is an important step toward addressing this problem by requiring agencies to take a proactive approach to preventing waste, fraud, and abuse. I appreciate my colleagues for supporting this commonsense reform and look forward to seeing the Senate follow suit,” said Rep. Palmer. View Rep. Palmer’s previous press release for more information on the ZOMBIE Act here. | 1 | 2026-06-27T21:44:12Z | 2026-06-27T22:11:26Z |
