During a portion of an interview aired on Friday's broadcast of "The Issue Is," Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg responded to a question on whether he likes California's plan to ban the sale of new gas-powered vehicles by 2035 -- a plan that drew praise from Energy Secretary Jennifer Granholm last week -- and whether he thinks it could be a national model by stating that it's "interesting" to see what states are doing and he's "really interested to follow these developments" at the state level.
