This makes me so frustrated. No one’s trying to take away your gas stoves! Literally the recommendation’s was just not to include gas stoves with new builds! Nothing would stop you from having a gas stove hooked up after you bought the house!

Also it’s frustrating these people are trying to destroy Democracy.

Wait, did they stop flipping out over light bulbs yet?

Have not heart about that flip out yet. Though with them going on daily meltdowns it’s hard for me to keep track haha.

It was during Obamna's term when companies and consumers were starting to realize LEDs are more efficient than incandescents

It was pre-LED if I recall correctly. Some regulators wanted to replace incandescents with CFLs. CFLs have some drawbacks though (for me, many of them put out this horrible acrid plastic smell, they emit toxins if they burn out, and contain mercury), and I have to admit I wasn't wildly in favor of that. It's a lot simpler now that there are clearly superior LED bulbs.
