A sizable coalition of some of the nation's leading oil and gas industry organizations is sounding the alarm on President Biden's pick to lead an obscure agency.

Power the Future founder Daniel Turner weighs in on the Biden administration's war against rural America on 'The Ingraham Angle.

The groups argued that Carlson's past statements suggest she is willing to skirt the agency's mission andto promote electric vehicles . Congress established NHTSA in 1970 to improve the safety of passenger cars amid a surge in traffic accidents and deaths. "[Carlson's] multiple public statements reveal a clear agenda to go beyond NHTSA’s congressionally mandated mission on vehicle performance and safety standards and turn it into a climate change enforcement body," the coalition wrote."We are also concerned by Carlson’s lack of transparency about her work promoting spurious climate change litigation."

President Biden nominated Ann Carlson to lead the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration in February. "Today, the most pressing concern of NHTSA is not climate change impacts decades into the future but traffic safety in the here and now," the letter continued."Americans face real dangers from distracted and impaired drivers behind the wheel and potential vehicle safety standard violations."
