In the section Business Career, there is now text 8 paragraphs down in the section that incorrectly says:

"In 2017, GreenTech Automotive investors sued McAuliffe for fraud, with the firm declaring bankruptcy in 2018.[41][42][43] The plaintiffs alleged that McAuliffe helped obtain EB-5 visas in exchange for $560,000 investments into GreenTech Automotive, which exceeded the Department of Homeland Security's determined quota for GreenTech Automotive."

It should say, in place of that, as supported by the existing refs (please change the above to the below):

"In 2017, 32 GreenTech Automotive investors from China sued McAuliffe, CEO Charlie Wang, and others for fraud, and in 2018 the firm declared bankruptcy.[41][42][43] The plaintiffs alleged that McAuliffe and his co-defendants promised to obtain EB-5 visas for the Chinese plaintiffs in exchange for $560,000 investments from each of them into GreenTech Automotive; however, the Department of Homeland Security did not provide the visas, because GreenTech failed to generate the number of jobs that were required for the visas to be issued under the EB-5 visa program." 184.153.21.19 (talk) 00:37, 26 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Done Agree that your version is a better reading of the sources. I've implemented it with a few minor tweaks. DrOrinScrivello (talk) 21:23, 26 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
