Do you recall the uproar a few months ago when the Democrats were exposed for their attempt to outlaw gas stoves? They attempted to sweep it under the rug, declaring it was false and ridiculing anyone who dared to mention it. Chuck Schumer even had the audacity to go on record, boldly stating, “No one is coming for your gas stoves.” Yet, as we’ve seen with numerous so-called ‘conspiracy theories’ in recent years, this one has proven to be accurate. The left’s assault on gas stoves is far from over.
Consider Berkeley, California. This city is making the purchase of a gas stove increasingly challenging. According to FOX News, Berkeley is striving to increase the cost of installing gas stoves in both commercial and residential buildings, effectively taxing them into extinction. The Wall Street Journal editorial board lambasted this move, highlighting that despite Democrats’ denials, actions like these tell a different story.
Berkeley aims to inflate the cost of gas stoves to ‘discourage’ natural gas infrastructure
The Wall Street Journal editorial board has vehemently criticized Berkeley’s efforts to raise the cost of installing gas stoves in commercial and residential buildings.
“Democrats swear they aren’t coming for your gas stoves, but look at how Berkeley is scheming to tax them out of existence,” The Wall Street Journal penned in a recent editorial.
The Biden-Harris administration faced backlash from consumers and businesses after unveiling energy efficiency regulations targeting gas-powered stovetops as part of its broader climate agenda. It later retracted a more aggressive proposal announced in 2023.
“The People aim to discourage outdated natural gas infrastructure and associated greenhouse gas emissions in existing commercial and large residential buildings, thus mitigating the environmental and health hazards produced by the consumption and transportation of natural gas,” states the initiative backing the measure in Berkeley, according to the Journal.
Isn’t it peculiar how something they vehemently denied is indeed unfolding? The left continues to relentlessly push their agenda, regardless of its lack of popularity.
