The Senate on Wednesday ratified an international treaty that mandates nations to phase out hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs) to protect the earth’s ozone layer, which will impose new standards that will raise the costs of air conditioning and refrigeration.
A group of 50 Senate Democrats and 19 Republicans voted to pass the Kigali Amendment to the 1987 United Nations (UN) Montreal Protocol. The amendment, which 27 Republicans voted to oppose, will limit the production and use of HFCs, man-made chemicals that are primarily used for cooling and refrigeration, by 85% over 15 years, which could substantially increase consumer and business costs in related industries.

Thought I recognized that name.
That makes random deviations from the average abnormal, which is to say that normal conditions are abnormal. But then, words really don't have any fixed meanings, do they?
Welcome to Bizarro world.
We finally went with the Speed Queen washer and dryer.
I had two Fisher Paykels die after six years. Each time the board had to be replaced. The repair would have been over $300.
You have to start with the understanding that the ONLY source of legitimate federal government power is ONLY that which is delegated and enumerated in the Constitution which created the federal government.
So where does the Constitution give the feds power to regulate the American People proposed by this bill?
(This is not a treaty with a foreign government, it is a proposed US law. US laws MUST conform to the U.S. Constitution or it is an invalid and unenforceable law (US Const., Art. VI, Cl. 2).
btw, if you have an old dryer and you are pulling it out to clean the vent you might as well take the back off and clean it. Check the seals around the blower and the one by the vent. mine were disintegrated causing lint to escape around

“In refrigeration applications for which cost is not the main criterion, Peltier cooling appliances provide rapid cooling.”
Peltier coolers powered by solar panels. Remember, price is no object.
By ratifying a treaty based on politically correct junk science (imo), the very corrupt, post-17th Amendment ratification Senate is wrongly trying to expand the powers of the already unconstitutionally big federal government.
International study destroys hoax of 'climate emergency' 'No evidence in the record to date' (9.21.22)
A Brief History of Fantastically Wrong Climate Change Predictions (4.24.17)
"From the accepted doctrine that the United States is a government of delegated powers, it follows that those not expressly granted, or reasonably to be implied from such as are conferred, are reserved to the states, or to the people. To forestall any suggestion to the contrary, the Tenth Amendment was adopted. The same proposition, otherwise stated, is that powers not granted are prohibited [emphasis added]." —United States v. Butler, 1936.
Consider that Thomas Jefferson had first used his uncommon common sense as Secretary of State, then later his experience as president of the Senate, to point out that treaties cannot be used as backdoor to bypass the Constitution's Article V process for giving new powers to the fedreal government.
“In giving to the President and Senate a power to make treaties, the Constitution meant only to authorize them to carry into effect, by way of treaty, any powers they might constitutionally exercise.” —Thomas Jefferson: The Anas, 1793.
“Surely the President and Senate cannot do by treaty what the whole government is interdicted from doing in any way.” — Thomas Jefferson: Parliamentary Manual, 1812 .
The Supreme Court later reflected Jefferson's words with the following clarification concerning the Senate abusing its power to confirm treaties.
"The obvious and decisive answer to this, of course, is that no agreement with a foreign nation can confer power on the Congress, or on any other branch of Government, which is free from the restraints of the Constitution." —Reid v. Covert, 1957.
Trump supporters in both Republican and Democratic parties need to vote Republican in November.
the seal around the vent is not the correct term..i dont remember what it was called.. it was connected to the lint trap section
You skipped the horrid curly bulbs in your incomplete history essay. You also show no ability to distinguish between voluntary adoption of truly superior technologies, and government forced adoption of inferior technologies. At the time that government outlawed filament bulbs both compact fluorescent and LED lamps were very much inferior.
You receive a grade of “F” on your work.
Try to do better next time.
See my tagline for a clarification on their objectives...
It was 21 rinos not 19 that supported the bill.

Again, the usual traitorous republican Rinos led by Mcconnel-Graham-Romney-Rubio wing of the party. Why have Rinos, when they vote like Democrats?

You Remind me of my teachers in high school. That grade looks very familiar to me. LOL.
I’m going to keep this post in my filing cabinet. I will use it. Thank you!
You earned it with your shoddy research and lack of reasoning.
Try to do better next time.
Pushing us into economic chaos with fake science.
Somehow we’ve survive Government mandates since 1776. Not sure how we did it, but we sure as hell have.
Lot’s a Buff’s around here....I got a few head of cattle....I could use those skins..
RINO Blunt has had a real scorched earth voting record to end his Senate career and (I assume) get ready for the posh lobbying world like his wife.
The votes I’ve seen are indistinguishable from the Dims.
