BIDEN WANTS TO REGULATE YOUR KITCHEN
(Mr. WILSON of South Carolina asked and was given permission to
address the House for 1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
Mr. WILSON of South Carolina. Madam Speaker, Biden and liberal
Democrats are trying to ban gas cooking appliances as part of their
Green New Deal.
This subverts legitimate environmental concerns by giving up all your
money by way of taxes and all of your freedom with the promise that
there will be catastrophe avoided in 50 years, but actually it would be
dependency on China.
This manufactured mandate would negatively affect 40 percent of
American families. High electricity bills, and costly new appliances
would force 187 million Americans to switch from gas to electricity as
families would spend an extra 23 hours a year waiting for water to
boil, lose $1,000 annually, and emit over 22 percent more carbon
dioxide.
House Republicans are promoting families by introducing Congresswoman
Debbie Lesko's-led Save Our Gas Stoves Act and Congressman Kelly
Armstrong's-led Gas Stove Protection and Freedom Act.
Happy birthday, U.S. Army. Happy birthday, Donald Trump.
In conclusion, God bless our troops, who successfully protected
America for 20 years as the global war on terrorism continues moving
from the Afghanistan safe haven to America with open borders by
President Biden.
