The so-called Green New Deal has reared its ugly head again, thanks to the Biden administration and its allies in Congress. Their newest attempt to prop up this failed radical agenda involves the banning of gas cooking appliances that millions of American families rely on every day. Make no mistake: This harebrained scheme is about more government control; more control over the lives of Americans; more control over what we do and, ultimately, how we think. What is the next domino to fall? Mr. Speaker, if this were to happen, American families would be crushed by high electricity bills and costly appliances in the name of climate activism. House Republicans have introduced the Save Our Gas Stoves Act and the Gas Stove Protection and Freedom Act to combat this madness. We must push back against more government control in our lives. ____________________
