U.S. Rep. Randy Weber (TX-14) voted in support of H.R. 1615, the Gas Stove Protection and Freedom Act, and H.R. 1640, the Save Our Gas Stoves Act, to block the Biden Administration from banning or regulating the use of gas stoves in U.S. households. Rep. Weber spoke on the House floor in support of these bills, which were prompted by a January comment from Richard Trumka, Jr., a commissioner of the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC). Trumka randomly proposed a ban on gas stoves, calling them a “hidden hazard” and saying, “any option is on the table.”
