Can a future president “unsign” it?

I haven't read the bill, but I'm sure Congress could pass another law undoing these standards. Good luck with that.

Where such laws have been passed before (Canada maybe?) it seems that there were a lot of exceptions: outdoor lights, reflector lamps, lamps over xx wattage, oven lamps, nightlight lamps, auto bulbs, lamps under xx wattage, colored lamps, etc.

If this does to light bulbs what they did to toilets, it might be enough to get Congress switched back. Seriously, this could be enough to run against the current Congress in any district of the country. Imagine having to replace every chandelier or overhead light in your house within the next three years. Imagine a four-pack of bulbs costing $60. Imagine never being able to dim a light or get one bright enough to be able to comfortable read. They can't be made in 3-ways or used with timers.

This should be enough to raise people's consciousness about what an out-of-control Congress can do.
