New York’s leaders are doubling down in their fight against gas stoves.
A vocal group of legislators, doctors and scientists is imploring Gov. Kathy Hochul to pass the NY Home Energy Affordable Transition Act — just months after Hochul’s controversial move to ban gas stoves, furnaces and propane heating in new residential buildings in the Empire State.
During a virtual press conference this week, the agitated assemblage presented a report bolstering the argument against any kind of gas-powered appliances, period.
A bill floated by the group would effectively allow the decommission of natural gas pipelines and plants and expedite the transition away from using natural gas for heating or cooking in all New York homes, according to Gothamist.
The proposed legislation passed the Senate 39-23, but did not successfully pass in the Assembly, where it is back in committee with 71 co-sponsors, per the website.

Guess I should add: If you are a Constitutionalist/conservative and you are simply escaping leftist insanity, please come to any good red state if you can. Fast.

I know we need some good people to stay in the leftist hives so they can fight the leftist insanity, but respectfully some of those places are lost causes. They are already collapsing and would prefer good people get out before complete collapse.

Respectfully, a lot of RAT laws sound like horrible ideas from the start esp. to people such as Freepers.

Which is supporting evidence for my hypothesis that Democrat voters are unable to learn. They see no correlation between their party of choice and the mess the country is now. If you point it out to them they pretend not to understand or come up with some fantasy mechanism whereby it’s all the Republicans fault and the sainted neoNazis Democrats are never to blame. I think it’s the arrogance that grows out of stupidity that causes it. If you’re stupid you think you’re always right.

Putting a sleeve in a gas line from the house to the main in the street is one thing, replacing junctions and larger mains is another.
I watched a junction replacement that took five weeks and involved a giant hole, traffic redirects, cops on site for the construction,etc. I couldn't imagine the cost and that was just for one junction, not even a major interchange.

Does it ever get cold in New York? If so, how will people warm their homes?

The Dems think they will mandate electric heating. Problem is sufficient infrastructure simply does not exist. So the answer will probably be space heaters, which of course will lead to fires. Or nothing, which will lead to people freezing to death. Also expect rolling blackouts, which will also lead to people freezing to death. /no exaggeration or sarc
Of course in the idiot Dem voters' "minds" (using the term loosely), that will all be Trump's and MAGA people's fault. /again no sarc

Hugo Chavez did the same thing in Venezuela. Cut off power at random times for the wealthy neighborhoods, but the poor always had power. And the wealthy paid 10X for their power.
It’s good to be the king. (Mel Brooks)
