Democrat President Joe Biden’s “woke” Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg has formed a team of “equity experts” that seeks to end private car ownership.
Buttigieg has been busy allocating tax dollars to appoint a group of “leading experts” to advise him on “transportation equity.”

The target is not just traditional gas-powered vehicles, however, as the “experts” insist that “all cars are bad,” including EVs.
Earlier this month, Buttigieg appointed 24 new members to his Advisory Committee on Transportation Equity.
The committee is an Obama-era body that Buttigieg is reviving after President Donald Trump’s administration scrapped it.
Included on the committee is Andrea Marpillero-Colomina.
Marpillero-Colomina is a so-called “spatial policy scholar” who says “ALL CARS ARE BAD” given that they cause “a myriad of environmental issues and conditions.”
