U.S. House lawmakers voted in support of an energy bill amendment that would prevent the Department of Energy from introducing energy efficiency standards that could outlaw most gas stoves on the market today.
More than a dozen Democrats joined Republicans in supporting the measure, part of a Republican-led pro-fossil-fuel legislative package H.R. 1, also referred to as the Lower Energy Costs Act, which the Biden administration has vowed to veto.

29 Democrats obviously wanted desperately to remain in office. The others are in districts where there is no risk of a Democrat ever losing an election.

It's funny how other media outlets report this. It's framed as undermining climate change efforts and a boon for the environmentally damaging fossil fuel industry. In reality it's a huge win for anyone who wants access to affordable energy resources.

When 29 Democrats go against their instructions and fail to vote the way they were told you have to know that bill really sucked.

I've got a new and happy gas stove in my kitchen and an older but workable garage backup. If you shut off the gas you'd better shut off the propane with it. Not a snowball's chance in hell am I cooking on electric. I'll build a wood fire first.

It’s about time other Dems start voting with GOP. Hope this is just a first because Biden’s handlers are goons and he just goes with the flow - whatever they suggest.

Think about it. joey & co want to ban gas stoves...............everyday, ordinary, reliable,safe, cheap to use gas stoves. They'll come after gas water heaters and dryers too , which are not in the kitchen where they say that people are exposed to the so called harmful effects of a gas stove.
They say that they're a danger to life earth. Anyone capable of critical thinking knows that that's a flat out lie.
The members of the church of climatechange/globalwarming believe that they're on some sort of holy mission to save the planet which doesn't need saving. Anyone that opposes them is a " denier " .........the left is very good at labeling ( denigrating ) their opposition. Don't ever fall for it. You know the truth, never be afraid to speak it. It's the on thing that the left is afraid of.

Natural gas is not a fossil fuel, also, it is natural so it is organic and gluten free.

Banning gas stoves would absolutely destroy the restaurant industry. Go and try to find a restaurant that cooks on electric stoves. They don’t exist. I guess those 29 House demonrats don’t want to be denied their favorite elite DC restaurants.

The Senate will be hard pressed not to also block this bad legislation unless a Feinstein and Fetterman doppelganger can be groomed to imitate the brain dead Democrats they impersonate.

It's a practical matter...these Dems know the handwriting is on the wall...and they are covering their sizable posteriors for the next election...they shouldn't worry because Bragg will send them photos of President Trump's mug shot to help raise the funds they need from their donor base...I'm sure blm will contrite ,millions to whomever needs help....well maybe not...they are still on spring brake in the Bahamas...

When more than half the populace comes to the realization that DC is a partisan, corrupt cesspool, the REAL "civil disobedience" is going to begin....and it is NOT going to be pretty.

One of the biggest control weapons they will have if this passes is that they can shut the electricity off at any time to punish their enemies. Can't do that with natural gas.
