"Gas stove bans face opposition from Democrats and Republicans alike"

The US House of Representatives passed the Save Our Gas Stoves Act, which blocks the Department of Energy from implementing new energy conservation rules on gas stoves. The bill was supported by every Republican and 29 Democrats, indicating that many members of President Biden’s own party do not support the Energy Department's efforts. The vote is a response to a department rule issued this year that seeks to boost energy efficiency standards for gas stoves. The Energy Department has defended its rule by saying it would only apply to new purchases of gas stoves, and that it would not require anyone's stove to be replaced.
