Let me guess, oil and gas companies hate energy saving lightbulbs.
So are you ready to use incandescent lights again and thus pay higher electricity bill?
Quote:Trump to roll back rules on toilets, showers and lightbulbs.
Trump called for "common sense standards on LIGHTBULBS" on his social media platform Truth Social on Tuesday, and said he was instructing Environmental Protection Agency Secretary Lee Zeldin to immediately change the requirements.
During that a round-table on small business and red tape in 2019 Trump, said that the new, low energy light bulbs made people look orange.
"The new bulb is many times more expensive, and, I hate to say it, it doesn't make you look as good," Trump said.
In 2022 the Department of Energy issued rules that began a phaseout of energy-wasting lightbulbs by requiring that lightbulbs sold in the United States meet new, higher minimum efficiency standards by 2028.
Work to set those standards began in 2007 under the Energy Independence and Security Act of 2007 under President George W. Bush.

teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"
