Vice President Kamala Harris and Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg were criticized Monday for a “tone deaf” event focused on promoting electric buses as gas prices soared for most Americans.

Oklahoma Republican Rep. Markwayne Mullin, a member of the House Energy and Commerce Committee, tweeted, “The Biden Administration could not be more tone-deaf.”

“Vice President Kamala Harris and [Transportation] Secretary Pete Buttigieg spent the afternoon promoting electric vehicles and Green New Deal policies.

“Are you kidding me?” Mullin wrote.
