Mike Huckabee has established a toll-free telephone line to allow people with information about suspected fraud, waste and abuse in state government to report that information. It will be in operation beginning Thursday.
Callers can remain anonymous if they wish.
Hardin, a 28-year FBI veteran who retired from the bureau in March, was hired by the governor to review state grants, contracts, personal service agreements and lease agreements for possible irregularities. Dozens of them have told me they welcome the current review. By shining a bright light in all corners of the bureaucracy, we can restore public trust in state government. We owe it to them to be sure every dollar they send us is being spent wisely. This telephone hotline will help us do that.
