News summary

The British Labour Party, led by Sofia Patel, has announced plans to send nearly 100 staffers to the U.S. to campaign for Vice President Kamala Harris in key battleground states ahead of the November election. This initiative has drawn significant criticism, with some accusing it of foreign election interference and violating U.S. election laws, as volunteers' travel expenses could be classified as campaign donations if they exceed $1,000. Legal experts warn that this could expose the Harris campaign to fines from the Federal Elections Commission (FEC). Critics, including prominent figures like Elon Musk and Republican lawmakers, have condemned the move as illegal and an affront to American democracy. Patel's outreach on LinkedIn, soliciting volunteers and promising housing support, has since been deleted, signaling potential backlash. The Labour Party claims that participants are covering their own travel costs and acting independently, but the implications of their actions remain contentious.
