The House Rules Committee is holding a hearing Monday afternoon on two bills aimed at preventing bans on gas stoves after President Joe Biden’s administration proposed energy-efficiency and conservation standards for household appliances earlier this year.
The Biden administration proposed energy-efficient standards this year for residential gas furnaces through the Department of Energy as part of an effort to reduce greenhouse gas emissions.
