Republicans attack Biden administration over proposed gas stove regulation

A House Oversight and Accountability subcommittee held a hearing Wednesday on a proposed Department of Energy (DOE) regulation that would require increased efficiency from new gas stoves. Republicans, who are the majority on the committee, immediately made clear their opposition to the proposal.

“The Biden administration is looking to regulate gas stoves out of existence,” Rep. Pat Fallon, R-Texas, who chairs the Subcommittee on Economic Growth, Energy Policy and Regulatory Affairs, said in his opening remarks. “What is more American than a gas stove?”

Democrats noted that the DOE estimates half the gas stove models currently on the market are already above the proposed requirement.

“This proposed rule is not a ban on gas stoves,” said Rep. Cori Bush, D-Mo., her party’s ranking member on the subcommittee. “We are regulating indoor air pollution.”

Nothing like a little fake outrage. They can always get together and light each other's farts.
