TURNING DOWN THE HEAT: Biden Admin Walks Back Gas Stove Ban After Blowback

According to multiple reports, after massive blowback to the Biden Administration’s proposed gas stove ban, Joe & co. have decided to walk back the scale of the ban significantly.

Targeted stoves have been reduced to 3% instead of the originally proposed 50%.

Energy Secretary Jennifer Granholm released a statement.

“President Biden is committed to using all the tools at the Administration’s disposal to lower costs for American families and deliver healthier communities — including energy efficiency measures like the one announced today,” Energy Secretary Jennifer Granholm said in a statement.

“DOE is dedicated to working together with our industry partners and stakeholders throughout 2024 to continue strengthening appliance standards, addressing a backlog of Congressionally-mandated energy efficiency actions that is delaying a projected $1 trillion in consumer savings from reaching the American people,” Granholm continued.
