Remember when the ill informed leftists here dismissed this when the Senile Biden admin talked about banning gas stoves. Well now Democratic states call for federal crackdown on gas stoves

A coalition of 11 Democratic attorneys general wrote to federal regulators Monday, urging them to take action cracking down on natural gas-powered stovetops over concerns about their impact on respiratory health.

The letter — led by Washington, D.C. Attorney General Brian Schwalb and joined by his counterparts in New York, Massachusetts and Maryland among other states — to the Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) came in response to the agency's request for information about gas stove hazards in March. The state attorneys general argued in favor of heightened restrictions on the appliance.

"Today, I’m leading 11 AGs calling for federal action to address the health & safety risks of gas stoves, which emit pollutants that have a disparate negative impact on children & underserved communities and put DC residents at risk of asthma and other respiratory illnesses," Schwalb tweeted Monday.

Someone should tell these morons that electricity is generated by coal and gas, primarily. Then there’s this pesky thing called loss, which is unavoidable when changing the state of energy. Unless they want to start building nuclear power plants, banning gas stoves results in the burning of more fossil fuels, not less.

Glad you mentioned nuclear. That's where the AP300 comes into play
