Political Quotes

“It is the height of insanity that Congress must pass legislation to keep unelected agency bureaucrats from taking away our ability and right to use gas stoves, which would surely be followed by cutting off gas to our homes completely. In fact, that is ultimately the plan. H.R. 1640, however, will protect our right to make dinner for our families without Big Government forcing their subpar cooking mandates on the American public. We are a free people after all--or at least we used to be. This bill will stop the Biden administration from intentionally increasing the cost of cooking and energy and will prevent this absurd government overreach from taking away even more of our rights. Natural gas stoves are the preferred cooktop of almost 40 percent of households in our country used by nearly 187 million people. They are more efficient and three times cheaper than their electric counterparts, so, of course, this administration would want to ban them. Look, energy poverty is not just an esoteric concept. It is this administration's goal. The CHAIR. The time of the gentlewoman has expired.”
