Forcing people to switch to expensive alternatives will only further increase costs on hardworking families and disproportionately harm the most vulnerable communities. Natural gas is a safe, reliable and affordable energy source for millions of Americans. I commend the efforts of my colleagues Reps. Armstrong and Lesko to end President Biden’s efforts to ban gas stoves in American households and ensure people have access to affordable and reliable energy," said Chair Rodgers    | | --- | “Inflation is hurting everyone. We have a crisis at our Southern Border. North Dakotans are worried about being able to provide for their families. What is the Biden administration focused on? Controlling the kind of stove Americans use. This is further incompetence from an administration that seems more interested in dictating every aspect of our lives than solving real problems. Our bill makes it clear that Americans should decide if a gas stove is right for their families, not the federal government,” said Congressman Armstrong.    “The Biden Administration’s extreme proposed regulation that will ban nearly every gas stove on the market is just another example of out-of-touch bureaucrats trying to control Americans’ everyday lives,” said Congresswoman Lesko. “I am proud to join Congressman Armstrong in introducing these important bills to protect Americans’ consumer choice and stop this egregious power-grab.”    [CLICK HERE](https://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001y2IrYFVoEx6LKkUJ_HU_oyPRlMafYsO2kSlCoBXkR9uDj-ZzjwIrUwWk_brpYA7zdOXtfOyPVbKBxSs0cAH7vzj-Ig3XJ4nzsGhPqoVC7bnkWC9lR9aYm9SprKBqumxUu9Am-9w-tPRRGsDo4t3d2oRU_IB4zrrrusnI6QUv49N97BkgrTkKhHVyzLDO-elaCMGkueL8TNTRmojRybSAR994SQgL-Achpa63faGyz0m3rHmk4wQx3fiIykLPVOzLhEBa-YIkjZEhd-toZ4ZO-g==&c=ZO-aT3ILLvakKRwa8Mp_Va4YMkfFqr1NR7gBUjG76WTQgeYRXA2ANQ==&ch=nNHpSYkjD7mPT75yNzKtVkud2g-8kpEAJbtuxxD-dxDOnsseIgbs4A==) to read H.R. 1640, the Save Our Gas Stoves Act.    [CLICK HERE](https://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001y2IrYFVoEx6LKkUJ_HU_oyPRlMafYsO2kSlCoBXkR9uDj-ZzjwIrUwWk_brpYA7zJVl3XhjuhptEoJL_j2P48HRxf7ocoqb8LfCUA-lw37M7rZI2eByz2x5MPkt9M-32W5PtlnS2eTRqW5bsXWFo54RJgO8PmpAktxUhVudiHQ9yLkz-rci-SpvXUE3IhCmY8D5wCxQTBHDDkwOowsaiepZBuy-uMUqZ4TQka1wMF_LEcC1nBT-Wd6_nQzqvKK14l7dI9jib9oA=&c=ZO-aT3ILLvakKRwa8Mp_Va4YMkfFqr1NR7gBUjG76WTQgeYRXA2ANQ==&ch=nNHpSYkjD7mPT75yNzKtVkud2g-8kpEAJbtuxxD-dxDOnsseIgbs4A==) to read H.R. 1615, the Gas Stove Protection and Freedom Act. - [Tweet](https://twitter.com/share) [![Big Tech Censorship 03.21.2023](https://spokanegop.com/hubfs/fed-news.webp) ](https://spokanegop.com/blog/big-tech-censorship-03-21-2023) #### [Big Tech Censorship 03.21.2023](https://spokanegop.com/blog/big-tech-censorship-03-21-2023) ![Picture of Spokane GOP](https://spokanegop.com/hs-fs/hubfs/GOP-Circle-Logo-sm.png?width=30&name=GOP-Circle-Logo-sm.png) [Spokane GOP](https://spokanegop.com/blog/author/spokane-gop) : Apr 26, 2024 6:37:19 PM Note: This was originally posted March 21, 2023.
