Gas stoves can emit dangerous level of toxic chemicals\u2014even when not in use\u2014and CPSC will consider all approaches to regulation,&#8221; Trumka Jr. stated the same at the time.<\/p>\n<p>U.S. lawmakers, including Senator Joe Manchin (D.W.Va.), have criticised the flotation of a ban. and Sen. James Lankford (R-Okla.). Others have urged CPSC to impose additional regulations on gas stoves.<\/p>\n<p>Trumka&#8217;s remarks were quickly refuted by other officials.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I am not looking to ban gas stoves and the CPSC has no proceeding to do so,&#8221; Chair of the CPSC Alex Hoehn\u2013Saric stated in a statement. In a statement, the White House said that President Joe Biden would not endorse a gas stove ban. &#8220;is not banning gas stoves.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>According to the Associated Press, New York Times, as well as other agencies, fact-checking articles claimed that the administration wasn&#8217;t going to or trying ban stoves. This claim was contradicted by the leak memo.<\/p>\n<p>Trumka stated in the document, addressed at Peter Feldman, the need for regulation of gas stoves &#8220;has reached a boiling point&#8221; As &#8220;emerging evidence&#8221; That was the result &#8220;gas stoves in homes emit toxic gasses that cause illnesses and that lower-cost, safer alternatives are available.&#8221; He cited a New York University School of Law paper, in which he cited papers that had found high nitrogen dioxide levels within homes with gas stoves. &#8220;address the risks of indoor air pollution from gas stoves.&#8221; He also pointed out that gas stoves have been banned in New York City and Los Angeles for newly built buildings.<\/p>\n<p>Federal law gives the CPSC the authority to regulate products that emit toxic chemicals. The commission must determine that the danger is severe enough to warrant a ban before it can impose a ban.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Procedurally, a ban would require several findings in the regulatory analysis\u2014in summary: (1) there is no relevant voluntary standard, the voluntary standard is insufficient, or substantial compliance with the voluntary standard is unlikely: (2) the expected benefits of the\u00a0rule bear a reasonable relationship to its costs, considering the distribution of benefits and costs; and (3) the regulation is the least burdensome way to adequately reduce the risk of injury,&#8221; Trumka wrote.<\/p>\n<p>There is already evidence that the stoves&#8217; emissions are toxic, but there isn&#8217;t a voluntary standard for this, he said. Additionally, &#8220;the costs of installing new electric stoves are typically lower than the costs of installing new gas stoves, even without the subsidies,&#8221; So &#8220;the costs of the rule to consumers would be negligible.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The White House, Trumka and the CPSC did not respond to our requests for comment.<\/p>\n<p>The memo that was leaked &#8220;proves [the] Biden administration intended to ban gas stoves,&#8221; the\u00a0Committee to Unleash Prosperity said.<\/p>\n<h2>Biden Nominee<\/h2>\n<p>The CPSC (Consumer Product Safety Commission) is an independent federal agency that imposes regulations regarding consumer products. It also develops mandatory standards and investigates potential hazards.<\/p>\n<p>Biden nominated Trumka Jr. for the commission in July 2021. At the time, Trumka was a lawyer for the\u00a0U.S. House of Representatives&#8217; Committee on Oversight and Reform.<\/p>\n<p>The Senate approved the nomination through a voice vote.<\/p>\n<p>Trumka Jr. is eligible for seven years.<\/p>\n<p>Feldman is a Trump appointee, whose term will end in 2026. Mary Boyle is the third commissioner and is an appointee of Biden. Hoehn\u2013Saric is another Biden appointee.<\/p>\n<h2>Proposal Advance<\/h2>\n<p>Trumka&#8217;s proposed notice of rulemaking was not issued, but a different notice\u00a0has been.<\/p>\n<p>A notice was issued by the CPSC on March 7th for information &#8220;on chronic hazards associated with gas ranges and proposed solutions to those hazards.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We are looking for research on the health hazards associated with gas exposure, data on chemical emissions, test methods, and effective solutions with cost-benefit analyses,&#8221; Trumka spoke.<\/p>\n<p>Feldman voted against, but the three Biden appointees voted for it.<\/p>\n<p>Trumka proposed a notice for rulemaking on gas stoves during a meeting of 2022 commissioners. However, he acknowledged that it was not supported by other commissioners. He presented the notice as a substitution.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p> &#8230;..<\/p>\n<hr>\n<p> Continue Reading <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theepochtimes.com\/official-appointed-by-biden-wanted-to-ban-gas-stoves-memo_5125774.html?utm_source=partner&#038;utm_campaign=conservnewsd\">Biden Wants to Appoint an Official to Ban Gas Stoves: Memo<\/a>&#8220;<\/p>\n<hr>\n<p><span style=\"font-size:11px\"><em>&#8220;The views and opinions expressed here are solely those of the author of the article and not necessarily shared or endorsed by Conservative News Daily&#8221;<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A federal official appointed by U.S. President Joe Biden wanted to ban gas stoves, according to a leaked memorandum. \u201cThere is sufficient information available for CPSC to issue an NPR in FY 2023 proposing to ban gas stoves in homes,\u201d Richard Trumka Jr., a U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission commissioner, wrote in the Oct. 25<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":75,"featured_media":1895893,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_mo_disable_npp":"","fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/cndimages.nyc3.digitaloceanspaces.com\/breaking-news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/IMG_2758-scaled-1.jpg","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[543],"tags":[15046,7008,3620,7536,17040,4808,14106],"class_list":["post-1887732","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-the-epoch-times","tag-appointed","tag-ban","tag-biden","tag-gas","tag-memo","tag-official","tag-stoves"],"fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/cndimages.nyc3.digitaloceanspaces.com\/breaking-news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/IMG_2758-scaled-1.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1887732","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/75"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1887732"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1887732\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1895893"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1887732"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1887732"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1887732"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
