AFP-WI Statement on Buttigieg’s Visit to Wisconsin

Green Bay, WI – As Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg visits Wisconsin this week, Americans for Prosperity-Wisconsin (AFP-WI) is reminding elected officials of the recent polling that shows Wisconsinites’ strong opposition to the Biden-Harris administration’s gas-car ban.

AFP-WI State Director Megan Novak made the following statement:

“While Secretary Buttigieg takes the stage as the latest surrogate for the Biden-Harris administration’s failed economic agenda, Wisconsinites know it’s the same bad policies, just a different person.

“Buttigieg is pro- ‘Bidenomics’ and is just as much at fault for our economic uncertainty as Tammy Baldwin and Kamala Harris—bearing responsibility for some of the most unpopular top-down policies to come out of Washington, like the heavy-handed electric vehicle mandate and gas-powered car ban that threatens freedom and makes life harder for Wisconsinites.  

“As Buttigieg jockeys for his spot at the top of the ticket in Washington, families and businesses in Wisconsin continue to struggle to make ends meet under the weight of these out-of-touch policies. Wisconsinites know that the only way to get our country back on track is to finally leave ‘Bidenomics’ behind.”
