a
California Democrat has thrown his support behind calls from the Biden administration to ban gas stoves from American homes by claiming that the appliances are causing “cardiac problems.”
As Slay News reported earlier, the Biden admin is considering a nationwide ban on gas stoves over claims they emit “harmful pollutants.”
According to a report by Bloomberg, Biden officials claim that a ban on the appliances being used in American homes “is on the table.”
The far-reaching admission was made by U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) commissioner Richard Trumka Jr.
Trumka reportedly told Bloomberg that gas stove appliances are a “hidden hazard” that “can be banned.”
“Any option is on the table,” Trumka told the outlet during an interview.
California Democrat State Senator Scott Weiner put out a statement on Twitter saying he is in favor of the ban.
“Gas stoves are toxic to people’s health,” he alleged.
“They cause asthma in children, cardiac problems & other disease,” Weiner claimed, without evidence.
“They need to be phased out.”
