Trump NHTSA Nominee Won’t Say Whether Humans Cause Climate Change

"As Environmental Protection Agency Administrator Scott Pruitt was grilled in one part of the Senate on Wednesday, a less prominent Trump administration official who has a major impact on automobile pollution and climate change policy was asked a basic question by a member of a separate Senate panel.

During a hearing on her nomination to head the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, Heidi King, the agency’s deputy chief, was asked whether climate change is caused by humans.

She wouldn’t say."
