Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg on Monday said the American people stand to benefit from having more electric vehicles on the road but failed to elaborate on how they could become more affordable.
Buttigieg appeared alongside Federal Transit Administrator Nuria Fernandez and Vice President Kamala Harris for a press conference, announcing the Biden administration's plan to give more than $2 billion in COVID relief money to financially-strapped transit agencies in 18 states.
Buttigieg said electric buses will create better, high-paying jobs and clean up congestion on freeways. He also said federal funds have been set aside to train the "diesel workers of today" to build and maintain the electric transit buses of the future. Experts have previously told Fox Business that the White House’s grand ambition to expand charging stations for electric vehicles will not help the areas that need it most.
