[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Dems voice safety concerns for president at SOTU. In view if the GOP's AR-15 lapel pin, I hope the SS is also concerned. https://l.smartnews.com/UndgT/W1tVNB[/quote] Perhaps they can wear pins with gas stoves instead. Those also seem to be causing libs to lose their minds lately. [/quote] What? It’s cons who are losing their minds over gas stoves. Haven’t you seen all the fuss Fox News and Repub politicians are generating over them? It’s kind of hilarious because liberal areas have way higher numbers of gas stoves and red areas. CALIFORNIA has the highest percentage of households using gas for cooking. So cons are trying to raise a ruckus in defense the lifestyles of liberal elites! Lol[/quote] People were concerned for a very good reason, Sport. And, it isn't just conservatives. [twitter]https://twitter.com/foxnewspolitics/status/1621205761652039680[/twitter] The Biden administration seriously considered banning natural gas-powered stoves before it received widespread criticism for considering such a move, according to an internal memo obtained by Fox News Digital. In the memo dated Oct. 25, 2022, Richard Trumka Jr. — whom President Biden appointed to serve on the five-person Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) — wrote to a fellow commissioner that there was sufficient evidence for the agency to move forward with a notice of proposed rulemaking (NPR) to ban gas stoves in the near future. Trumka's memo was titled, "NPR Proposing Ban on Gas Stoves (Indoor Air Quality)." "The need for gas stove regulation has reached a boiling point," the CPSC commissioner wrote in the October memo. "CPSC has the responsibility to ban consumer products that emit hazardous substances, particularly, when those emissions harm children, under the Federal Hazardous Substances Act." "Emerging evidence is sufficient to conclude that gas stoves in homes emit toxic gasses that cause illness and that lower-cost, safer alternatives are available," Trumka added. Trumka noted that the two largest U.S. cities, New York City and Los Angeles, had already banned gas stoves in new construction "for health and inequity reasons" and because gas stoves "strongly contribute to climate change through greenhouse gas emissions." "There is sufficient information available for CPSC to issue an NPR in FY 2023 proposing to ban gas stoves in homes," he concluded. "The additional work needed to complete an NPR is primarily economic; the available health and scientific evidence on illnesses caused by the relevant gasses at the concentrations present in homes with gas stoves already exists."[/quote]
