mrs. lesko: thank you. thank you, speaker johnson, leader ask lease, whip emmer and chairwoman stefanik. i am grateful for this opportunity to highlight my bill, the hands off our home appliances act. this bill prohibits the u.s. department of energy from prescribing any new or amended energy efficiency standards for a product -- for products that are not technologically feasible and economically justified. i am saddened that we even need a bill like this. however, as we have experienced under this administration, the department of energy has unleashed an avalanche of new regulations for household products including stoves, dish washers, washing machine, showers, toilet, water heat, air conditioners, heat pumps and furnaces. no government bureaucrat should ever scheme to take away american's appliances in the name of a radical environmental agenda. yes that is -- yet, that is exactly what we have seen under the biden administration. i was proud to lead the house republican effort to protect our gas stoves.
