Harris Touts Seattle’s Clean Bus Program As Nearby City’s E-Fleet Is Inoperable

While in Seattle on Wednesday, Vice President Kamala Harris announced a White House initiative to electrify the nation’s school buses. However, in nearby Kent, Wash., all three of the district’s electric school buses were out of service.

A source told The Post Millennial that the district “bought three electric school buses with the grants that were given out a couple of years ago. All three of those buses are out of service today because they cannot get parts for them. They also cannot be serviced by our district mechanics.” [bold, links added]

Another source said that many in the district have vowed to “never get electric buses again” because “electric buses are a bad idea. At least one of the buses had been out of service for eight months.”

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address
