Trump Considers Executive Order to Protect Gas Stoves and Heaters Amid Health and Environmental Concerns
Jan 7, 2025, 04:52 PM
President-elect Donald Trump is considering issuing an executive order to protect gas-powered appliances, such as gas stoves and heaters, from federal and local regulatory efforts aimed at phasing them out. This move comes in response to recent initiatives by Democratic-led cities and states to increase regulation on gas appliances, often through bans on new construction, citing health risks and methane emissions. Trump has publicly endorsed gas heaters, claiming they provide better heat and are more cost-effective than electric alternatives. The potential executive order is likely to limit federal funding for initiatives that restrict or raise the costs of gas appliances, reflecting a broader Republican pushback against environmental regulations.
