Media dismissed gas stove bans as right-wing conspiracy.

Democrat-Led New York Takes Bold Step in Climate Change Fight

Gas Stoves Banned in New Buildings Starting 2026

When news spread in January that the Biden administration and left-wing advocates were looking to ban gas appliances in the name of climate change, left-wing media assured their audience that the notion was right-wing gaslighting. Since then, however, Democrat-led cities and states have charged ahead with such bans.

This week, New York’s Democrat-led legislature passed the first statewide ban, prohibiting gas stoves and heating systems in new buildings starting in 2026. San Francisco city regulators voted in March to eliminate gas furnaces and water heaters by 2027.

U.S. Consumer Product Safety commissioner Richard Trumka Jr., who was appointed by President Joe Biden, in January ignited the debate when he signaled that a ban on gas stoves was “on the table.” Later reports revealed that the green energy group behind the push partnered with China to implement an “economy-wide transformation” away from oil and gas. Biden’s Energy Department in February acknowledged that roughly half of gas stoves on the market would not meet its newly proposed appliance regulations, the Washington Free Beacon reported.

Since New York passed its ban, the media have taken to praising Gov. Kathy Hochul’s (D.) climate initiative. CNN chief climate correspondent Bill Weir said New York’s ban is “one step closer to a world without fossil fuel pollution.”

Liberal Media Sources Convinced Gas Stove Ban Was a GOP-Ignited Rumor

• New York Times: “No One Is Coming for Your Gas Stove Anytime Soon”
• Time: “How Gas Stoves Became the Latest Right-Wing Cause in the Culture Wars”
• Salon: “Rumors of a gas stove ban ignite a right-wing culture war”
• MSNBC: “No, the woke mob is not coming for your gas stove”
• Associated Press: “FACT FOCUS: Biden administration isn’t banning gas stoves”
• Washington Post: “GOP thrusts gas stoves, Biden’s green agenda into the culture wars”
• MSNBC’s Stephanie Ruhle: “You might think that the U.S. government is coming for your gas stove. That is a new and absolutely ridiculous one.”
• NBC late-night host Seth Meyers: “GOP have been stoking a ridiculous new freak-out about gas stoves. … No one is taking your gas stove.”

Despite the initial skepticism from liberal media sources, the ban on gas stoves is now a reality in New York. This bold step in the fight against climate change is just the beginning, as more cities and states are expected to follow suit. It’s time to embrace a cleaner, greener future.
