If you are thinking it's time to bury your gas stove...It's time to use it.
I was hoping someone would get the reference...

Not to mention the amp draw that a electric strip heater pulls, I've seen many electrical fires, burnt wiring and breakers from electric air handlers. A large 20kw heat strip will pull around 80 amps which is a ton of power! And going green is good for the environment! I think they want the grids to fail so they have complete control over everything?Gas is far safer than electricity. One can smell gas if there is a leak and shut it off at the meter but no one can smell electricity if there is a short or bare wire. Touch the electric wiring and you could be on your way out via the coroner.
We shoot every third one and the second one just left.I wish people would figure out how great things would be, if we just banned democrats.
You can also add New York City to that list of places where Natural Gas use is banned.
NYC’s Natural Gas Ban Is Now Law: What That Means for Clean Energy
New York City is now the largest municipality to enact a natural gas ban that applies to both heating buildings and gas hookups for appliances.www.triplepundit.com
If that is the case, we all know the government cares for illegals over the American citizens so gas stoves are safe. Whew!I read somewhere that more blacks and illegals have gas stoves than anything so it is beyond me as to why anyone is upset about this sounds like a good way to get rid of them and make all of them leave back to wher they came from
Funny ...........This is just more feel-good bulls**t from the left. They don't have any viable solutions to real-world problems so they come up with crap like this. And, they know their constituents will eat this s**t up because they're incapable of realizing it's meaningless nonsense.
Kinda like the control over people they took when the 16th Amendment was ratified.

BREAKING NEWS!!!! Politicians and governments are hazardous to your freedom. ONLY YOU CAN BAN THOSE!!!! My DIL was an atty at EPA for several years. At her 50th BD party last Friday evening, she started the gas stove BS. My lips are still bleeding from biting them. Some of the smartest people are yet the dumbest.The Biden administration is currently considering a nationwide ban on gas stoves.
The Biden Administration is now weighing a nationwide ban on gas stoves.
Tens of millions of Americans use gas stoves. They're affordable, practical, and popular.
Enough with this woke garbage!

The Consumer Product Safety Commission is deliberating the action after research showed that emissions from the appliances can lead to health and respiratory issues.
“This is a hidden hazard,” CPSC Commissioner Richard Trumka Jr. said. “Any option is on the table. Products that can’t be made safe can be banned.”
My guiding duty is protecting consumer health and safety. Gas stoves can emit dangerous level of toxic chemicals – even when not in use – and @USCPSC will consider all approaches to regulation. Thank you @AriNatter and @business for excellent journalism.

Groups including the American Chemical Society and New York University Law School’s Institute for Policy Integrity found that gas stoves emit pollutants like nitrogen dioxide, carbon dioxide and fine matter.
The Environmental Protection Agency and World Health Organization have deemed that the level at which these pollutants are emitted is unsafe.
Respiratory illness, cardiovascular problems, cancer and other illnesses have also been allegedly attributed to gas stoves.
According to the International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health, more than 12% of childhood asthma can be linked to the appliances as well.
Brady Seals, a manager in the carbon-free buildings program at the nonprofit clean energy group RMI and a co-author of the study, made a statement.
“There is about 50 years of health studies showing that gas stoves are bad for our health, and the strongest evidence is on children and children’s asthma,” Seals said. “By having a gas connection, we are polluting the insides of our homes.”
Senator Cory Booker (D-N.J.) and Representative Don Beyer (D-Va.) have also voiced their support for the agency to take action against the appliances. In a letter, they wrote that gas stoves are a “cumulative burden” on minority and low-income households.
These reports have received criticism and pushback from associations that represent gas stove makers, as well as the public.
Secure the border? No.
Curb inflation for working families? No.
Ban gas stoves? YUP.

Jill Notini, vice president with the Association of Home Appliance Manufacturers, noted the inefficiency of the ban.
“Ventilation is really where this discussion should be, rather than banning one particular type of technology,” Notini said. “Banning one type of a cooking appliance is not going to address the concerns about overall indoor air quality. We may need some behavior change, we may need [people] to turn on their hoods when cooking.”
According to the Consumer Product Safety Commissioner, the ban could take the form of a suspension of imports, or a ban on the local manufacturing of gas stoves.
The CPSC, which has a staff of roughly 500, plans to open public comment on hazards posed by gas stoves later this winter.
