ControversyIn 2015, Beigneux was accused of welfare fraud following the Pas-de-Calais Caisse d'allocations familiales (CAF) opening a litigation case. She denied having unduly benefitted from the Revenu de solidarité active (RSA) after she left a previous position. The Pas-de-Calais CAF reported Beigneux did not declare all her revenues when filing benefit statements.[5] References
