House approves Republican bill to prevent federal gas stove ban.

The House of Representatives passed a bill to prevent the federal government from banning gas stoves, which Republicans claim is part of the Biden administration's anti-fossil fuel agenda. The Gas Stove Protection and Freedom Act would bar the Consumer Product Safety Commission from banning gas stoves. Democrats opposed the bill, calling it a distraction from pressing issues such as climate change. The bill is unlikely to pass in the Democratic-controlled Senate.
