Democrats and Republicans banded together to pass a bill on Tuesday aimed at blocking the Biden administration from banning everyday home appliances that run on natural gas.
The Hands Off Our Home Appliances Act, which passed 212 to 195, is one facet of a sweeping bill targeting the Department of Energy (DOE) introduced by Rep. Debbie Lesko, R-Ariz.
Seven Democrats voted in favor of the bill, which received no Republican dissent.
"I am saddened that we would need such a bill," Lesko told Fox News Digital in a statement. "However, as we have experienced under this administration, the Department of Energy has unleashed an avalanche of new regulations for household products, including stoves, dishwashers, washing machines, showers, toilets, water heaters, air conditioners, heat pumps, and furnaces."

Now we need one more bill for Biden..one that directs him to keep his hands off everything.
The “HOOHAA” Act?
Keep your hands off my HOOHAA!
Yep the new “sustainable, green”™ refrigerants are highly flammable. My DH, who is an HVAC technician and has his own biz, will be refusing to install or work on any of the new stuff. Still a lot of 410A around.

So, no, it does not have to be a states rights issue.
The Uniparty finally starts to listen to Americans.
I’m shocked.
Yea but if it gets to the President, he will veto it.
Was at Lowe’s today.
They have a fine display of very expensive gas stoves-——LOTS of them. .
How many jobs will be lost if all this manufacturing Biden is attacking gets a foothold??
Oh brother. This is about appliances. Stop gaslighting. I know you did it because you know I’m right. But still. A very stupid example.
OOPS, mea culpa.
There was another thread about banning Glock handguns, and I got the two thread replies mixed up.
My apologies.
Yes, in this case you are right.
LOL
That’s entertainment.
Totally get it. So much info out there. Have a great evening.
Yes, it is really not a surprise that the left has a hate on now for natural gas. Fossil fuel = the depths of evil.
