Congressional Republicans push back against gas stove bans.

TL;DR Summary
The "Gas Stove Protection and Freedom Act" is set to be voted on in the House this week, which would prohibit the federal government from banning the use of gas stoves. The legislation is expected to pass despite assurances from federal regulators that they have no plans to issue a ban on gas stoves. The debate over gas stoves has become a cultural and wedge issue, with Democrats offering amendments to mock the legislation. The Consumer Product Safety Commission has expressed support for tighter regulations on gas stoves, but denies that it is banning them. The Senate is not expected to take up the legislation.
