PUSH BACK AGAINST GOVERNMENT CONTROL
(Ms. FOXX asked and was given permission to address the House for 1
minute.)
Ms. FOXX. Mr. Speaker, the so-called Green New Deal has reared its
ugly head again, thanks to the Biden administration and its allies in
Congress.
Their newest attempt to prop up this failed radical agenda involves
the banning of gas cooking appliances that millions of American
families rely on every day.
Make no mistake: This harebrained scheme is about more government
control; more control over the lives of Americans; more control over
what we do and, ultimately, how we think. What is the next domino to
fall?
Mr. Speaker, if this were to happen, American families would be
crushed by high electricity bills and costly appliances in the name of
climate activism.
House Republicans have introduced the Save Our Gas Stoves Act and the
Gas Stove Protection and Freedom Act to combat this madness. We must
push back against more government control in our lives.
