Just the News "President Donald Trump has said he will sign the measure if it reaches his desk."
"In its final days, the Biden administration pushed through a ban on many types of gas-powered water heaters. The House Thursday passed a resolution nullifying the rule.
"House Joint Resolution 20 passed 221-198. No Republicans opposed the measure, and 11 Democrats sided with the GOP on the issue.
“ 'Shameful regulations like these not only limit consumer freedom and choice, but they also almost always hit low-income and elderly Americans the hardest. I am pleased to see House members prioritized this repeal and are continuing to put the American people first. I look forward to seeing the Senate taking the same actions,” Tom Pyle, president of the American Energy Alliance, said in a statement.
"President Donald Trump had issued a statement Monday supporting the measure, which was introduced by Rep. Gary Palmer, R-Ala., and said he would sign it if it reaches his desk.
“ 'In their final days in office, the Biden-Harris Administration’s Department of Energy introduced a rule that would ban gas-fired water heaters. This egregious rule, if continued, would restrict consumer choice, limit the use of natural gas appliances, and increase prices for American families,” Palmer said in a statement Tuesday.
" 'The resolution was introduced under the Congressional Review Act, which allows Congress to block finalized federal regulations."
