House GOP intensifies pushback against gas stove regulations

House Republicans are set to consider two bills related to gas stoves, one that would prohibit the use of federal funds to ban the devices, and another that calls for blocking an Energy Department rule that institutes energy conservation standards for some consumer products. The House is also slated to consider the REINS Act, which would bolster Congress’s authority over the federal rulemaking process. Meanwhile, the Senate is eyeing legislation related to competition with China, artificial intelligence, lowering the cost of prescription drugs, and rail safety.
