They are trying to do the same in Chicago with new construction. Electric only.

Resistive heating is the least efficient. This is purposeful destruction of the US and greater control over people and resources.

Kathy Hochul just proposed a ban in New York, what marxist socialist radical environmental manual do they all read from?

[SaveFerris]

Oh good. Everything runs on electricity.

What could possibly go wrong?

EMP? Fuggetabboutit (I probably spelled that incorrectly).

[Lockbox]

ban electric teakettles that were a staple of British kitchens, because they used too much electricity.

Yet here they want to ban gas stoves and go electric stoves...... plus heat pumps, etc..... 🤪

[Kaiser8408a]

It was that idiot Corey Booker’s (D-NJ) idea. Biden is too stupid to even think of this crap.

[ProtectOurFreedom]

Yep, they are doing the “No new gas hookups” all over the country. In 30 or 40 years, they will have effectively banned all natural gas.

But, no, they weren’t satisfied having to wait. They want tyranny and they want it now. RAM IT DOWN the deplorable’s throats.

When people see the government reach into their homes and change things it gets concrete for them. Most people do not think abstractly. The do not foresee second and third order consequences.

Every restaurant in the developed world uses gas stoves. Much more efficient and controllable heat. I used to be a cook in a restaurant and I cannot imagine all restaurants switching to electric stoves. It’s just not gonna happen. For one thing to switch over would cost fortunes, many fortunes and it would also increase the electric and heating bills of every restaurant in America. I guess they are trying to get rid of restaurants on top of everything else.

NY gets what they vote for

[bray]

Even white housewives thought this was too crazy.

[Skepolitic]

The use of fire has been one of the defining characteristics of mankind for something like 200,000 years.

It’s only natural that the gay marriage proponents would now promote a ban on fire.

Gas stove tops can boil water much faster than electric.

My 20-something daughter, who is a brainwashed lib, loves to cook. In her apartment she has an electric stove and doesn't like it because it takes so long to boil water. She told me her next living quarters MUST have a gas stove.

When the time comes and she is told NO, you cannot have a gas stove, I wonder how she'll react. My guess is she'll accept it and move on without seeing the bigger picture.

Blah, blah, blah. It’s going to happen, with little pushback from the people.

[Opinionated Blowhard]

There is one way to stop this nonsense - vote for people who will change the laws and reign in the regulatory agencies. Until Americans do that, they will continue to get this nonsense. Banning gas stoves still is on the bureaucrats’’ agenda. It will just be done in a more stealthy way.

[eyeamok]

Have the Republicans in the House put forth legislation Banning any and all taxpayer funds from being used to purchase Natural Gas or Propane??

WHY NOT?
Force them to live up to their own dogma.

[mountainlion]

It is time to get rid of activists that legislate form their unelected positions using power that was never theirs.

[the OlLine Rebel]

Someone from the Hill is reporting about “diktats” and “rebelling”? And it was printed?

How can this be?

[dennisw]

Throw the bums out! These greenie bums are the worst. You know, the ones feeding at the public trough while “working” from home and doing nothing useful.

[Sacajaweau]

I hate my electric stove. I was raised on gas...my daughter was, too...and she got a gas stove when they built their house in 1992.
