Perry's stance clashes with comments made by other members of his administration — including his boss, President Donald Trump.

Energy Secretary Rick Perry said Wednesday that he would"absolutely" have a conversation with Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., about the Green New Deal.

Perry's stance on the firebrand freshman lawmaker's ambitious policy proposal clashes with comments made by other members of his administration — including his boss, President Donald Trump, who appointed Perry to the role."It would shut down American energy, which I don't think the people in Texas are going to be happy with," Trump said in a speech in February.

Perry said he had a conversation with a young entrepreneur a few days ago about setting up a meeting with Ocasio-Cortez.
