CBS’s “Face the Nation” host Margaret Brennan couldn’t contain her laughter when Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg tried to justify the sluggish progress on electric vehicle (EV) charging stations—a cornerstone of the Biden administration’s green infrastructure plan. Despite a whopping $7.5 billion flushed from taxpayers’ pockets into the initiative, only a “handful” of stations have sprung up.
The interview, which started with a serious tone about the administration’s ambitious goals, took a comedic turn when Brennan pointed out the glaring discrepancy between the investment made back in 2021 and the meager results thus far. According to the Federal Highway Administration, only seven or eight charging stations have been built—a shockingly low number given the billions spent.
