Vice President Kamala Harris will be in Seattle Wednesday, Oct.26.

The Seattle Times says she'll be in town to talk about the administration's low-emission school bus initiative.

The $5 billion plan spearheaded by the EPA seeks to replace school buses with zero or low-emission alternatives. EPA Administrator Michael Regan will join the vice president for the appearance.

Vice President Harris is also scheduled to attend a private fundraiser while she's in town. The midterms are 15 days away.

Harris last visited Seattle in 2019 when she and Joe Biden were running for office.

First Lady Jill Biden also visited Seattle earlier this month to talk with military families attend a fundraiser for U.S. Sen. Patty Murray.
