Kamala Harris's Electric School Bus Program Granted $395k to a Chinese Manufacturer. Then Its Top Executive Sent Biden-Harris Scores of Campaign Cash.
Vice President Kamala Harris's billion-dollar Clean School Bus program provided funding to Chinese EV manufacturer BYD Company's subsidiary in the United States, according to federal filings reviewed by the
Washington Free Beacon. Months later, the subsidiary's top executive, a Chinese national, wired $50,000 in support of what is now Harris's presidential campaign.
BYD Americas was selected in late 2022 to receive $395,000 under the administration's Clean School Bus program, which was spearheaded by Harris and EPA administrator Michael Regan,
EPA documents show. That funding was disbursed in May 2023, six months before Li's donations to the Biden-Harris campaign, according to the EPA.
BYD Americas's president, Ke Li, then donated $25,000 to the Biden Victory Fund (now the Harris Victory Fund), $18,400 to the Democratic National Committee, but earmarked for the Biden Victory Fund, and a maximum individual contribution of $6,600 to the Biden campaign (now the Harris campaign), according to
FEC filings reviewed by the
Free Beacon. Li made each contribution on the same day: Nov. 14, 2023. President Joe Biden's $96 million campaign
war chest was transferred to Harris's campaign in July after Biden withdrew from the presidential race.
