Biden administration weighs nationwide ban on gas stoves: report

Millions of Americans may soon be entering “not stove season.“

The Biden administration is considering a nationwide ban on gas stoves — citing the harmful pollutants released by the appliances, according to a report.

The Consumer Product Safety Commission is mulling the action after recent studies showed emissions from the devices can cause health and respiratory problems, Bloomberg reported Monday.

“This is a hidden hazard,” CPSC Commissioner Richard Trumka Jr., told the outlet. “Any option is on the table. Products that can’t be made safe can be banned.”

Banning gas stoves?????????? More proof government is getting bigger.

This administration writes their own parody material. Most of Europe has been de-balled. Canada is long gone. Australia too. If they can just get us in line the UN can get on with the business of "global equity".

I imagine he and Hunter have a warehouse full of Chinese-made gas stoves and are trying to create a black market for them.

He can't.

Period.

He can't.

Period.

Since when has that stopped any Democrat?  And how many moonbats know he can't?  More importantly, how many  fence sitters know he can't?

Good point.

The NYSRPA vs. Bruenn decision pretty clearly lined out almost all gun bans as direct violations of the Constitution, yet how many leftist-run shitholes are there presently running their gun bans through the federal court system since Bruenn, in the hopes that THEIR specious arguments will be the one that get thru the Supreme Court's Constitutional defenses?

First lady roasted online for cooking on gas stove the Biden admin is looking to ban

An old photo of first lady Jill Biden cooking with a gas stove has gone viral this week as the Biden administration is weighing the ban of such appliances, according to a report.

"Hey [Antoni Porowski], what are you cooking tonight?" Biden wrote on Twitter in September 2020, including the photo of herself using a gas stove top to cook and directing the question toward Canadian chef and TV personality Antoni Porowski.

The photo resurfaced just days after Bloomberg first reported that the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) is considering a ban on gas stoves because of concerns about indoor air pollutants from the appliances.



"Rules for thee but not for me," Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, tweeted.

Gov. Hochul quietly sneaks in proposal to ban sale of gas stoves, fuels outrage across New York
https://nypost.com/2023/01/11/hochuls-plan-to-ban-sale-of-gas-stoves-fuels-outrage/

Here’s something that will leave a bad taste in peoples’ mouths.

Gov. Hochul quietly snuck a proposal to outlaw new gas stoves into the “New York Housing Compact” she unveiled during her State of the State speech Tuesday — urging people to ditch their kitchens’ gas grills and go electric.

The ban would affect old-timers and millennials who are obsessed with cast-iron pans that are tricky to use on electric stoves.

“This is plain stupid,” said a 70-year-old resident of Sea Gate, Brooklyn, who gave his name as Victor K. “We lost electricity before, during Hurricane Sandy The only thing we had to heat up our food was gas. What if that happens again?”

Governor Hochul wants to ban gas stoves and go with electric stoves in New York. What could go wrong with that with the power grid.

AOC has claimed gas stoves have been linked with reduced cognitive performance.

Do you speak from experience, Congresswoman?

Democrat-led cities are already moving forward with gas stove bans that will affect millions
https://www.foxnews.com/politics/democrat-led-cities-already-moving-forward-gas-stove-bans-affect-millions

Democratic leaders in major cities nationwide have already moved forward with bans on natural gas stoves even as the Biden administration has pumped the brakes on similar regulations at the federal level.

Cities including Los Angeles, San Diego, San Francisco, Seattle and New York City — which are collectively home to more than 10 million Americans — have enacted varying restrictions on natural gas hookups impacting gas-powered furnaces, ovens and stoves.

Leaders of the Democrat-led cities have argued that transitioning away from natural gas would help achieve climate and net-zero ambitions.

"New York City is proof that it’s possible to end the era of fossil fuels, invest in a sustainable future, protect public health and create good-paying jobs in the process," former New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio said in December 2021. "If the largest city in America can take this critical step to ban gas use, any city can do the same."

The usual suspects banning gas stoves. Los Angeles, San Diego, San Francisco, Seattle and New York City. It is going to be a strain on the already stressed power grid.

San Francisco area push to ban gas appliances amid blackouts is ‘pure extremist politics,’ CEO says
https://www.foxnews.com/politics/san-francisco-area-push-ban-gas-appliances-amid-blackouts-pure-extremist-politics-ceo-says

Homeowners and builders are calling a possible ban on certain gas-powered appliances in the San Francisco Bay Area an extreme move, forcing a region prone to blackouts to rely even further on an over-burdened electrical supply.

"This is just pure extremist politics being taken to the ultimate extremes," said National Association of Home Builders CEO Jerry Howard. "You talk to anybody in California, their electrical grid can't take the current strain in the summer, obviously, and you're going to add to it by making every car electric, every furnace, every air conditioner, every refrigerator, every stove electric?"

"Once you start down this path that gas is bad, it gives momentum to all of these extremists who are choosing to ignore the facts and pursue an agenda that is only going to cause more people to be paying too much for their housing or, God forbid, more homelessness in an area that's already ravaged by homelessness," he continued.

San Francisco is lookin g at banning gas stoves. It is an area prone to blackouts as the power grid is stretched thin.

Im not sure they would know how to light a gas cooktop if the power went out anyways.

Leave the gas on for 10-15 minutes, then strike a match.

Given the propensity of gas lines to break in the aftermath of earthquakes, I'm not sure having gas stoves in the Shitty of Shan Franshishco [/Sean_Connery] would be much better for the morons that live there.

It'll be a boon to the collective IQs of the surrounding area, but no up-side for the 'Sickos...

Residents can use wood, charcoal or dried camel manure.

I heard on the news that instead of a ban they are working on new “safety regulations “
 

[ABC-2]

Residents can use wood, charcoal or dried camel manure.

Of the 3 choices, I would prefer that they use "Dried camel manure!"  ...

Which is in extremely short supply here.   

That way the DEM  fools that live in the Democrat-led cities would have to depart our land altogether; which would be a  great boon to the country!!!
