Florida Grand Jury: DeSantis Administration Diverted $10 Million From Children's Health Insurance Fund

A Florida grand jury found that Governor Ron DeSantis's administration "misappropriated" $10 million from a Medicaid settlement meant to insure poor children. The money flowed through the Hope Florida Foundation, a charity linked to First Lady Casey DeSantis, into political action committees and the state Republican Party. No indictments followed; the jury cited insufficient evidence. CBS News Miami published the sealed report seven months after its January 28, 2026 date.
