Biden’s Transport Czar Recently Bought Stock In a Chinese Company Singled Out for Forced Uyghur Labor Use.
Yet another top appointee has their fortunes tied to the Chinese Communist Party.
President Joe Biden’s top appointee to the Federal Transit Administration recently invested in a Chinese textile company that relies on forced Uyghur labor for the production of its clothes and footwear in China’s Xinjiang province.
Nuria Fernandez – Biden’s Administrator of the Department of Transportation (DOT) agency – purchased stock in Li-Ning Company on December 10th, 2021. The purchase was worth between $1,001 to $15,000, according to a financial disclosure report. Li-Ning Company, founded by former Olympic gymnast Li Ning, has been identified by the U.S. government and human rights groups as relying on forced Uyghur labor to produce their goods in China’s Xinjiang region. In Xinjiang, the Chinese Communist Party routinely subjects the ethnic minority group to forced labor, torture, mass surveillance, and involuntary sterilization.
