Virginia Democrat Gov. Terry McAuliffe and Anthony Rodham, the brother of former Democrat presidential candidate Hillary Clinton, are being sued by a group of Chinese investors for allegedly running a massive cash-for-green card scam.
McAuliffe and Rodham are “facing a $17 million fraud lawsuit from Chinese investors in Greentech Automotive, an electric car company,” Politico reported.
The suit was filed last week in a Fairfax, Virginia circuit court. A group of 32 Chinese investors claim McAuliffe and Rodham “exploited” them by promising to “leverage … political connections” in order to get their immigrant visa applications “to the top of the pile, and then be approved.”
The green cards were reportedly granted as part of the U.S. government’s EB-5 visa program, which gives legal status to foreign nationals who invest a minimum of $500,000 in U.S. companies, according to The Daily Caller.
The lawsuit claims the Chinese investors were essentially pouring money into Greentech with the promise of winning permanent residency in the U.S. under the green card program.
