Biden Begins Enforcing Light Bulb Ban
The Department of Energy (DOE) is moving ahead with regulations that will ban popular incandescent and similar halogen light bulbs from being sold in the United States, a move that has been met with fierce criticism from Republicans.A nationwide ban will be enforced, preventing retailers and manufacturers from selling traditional bulbs and instead requiring them to sell energy-efficient light-emitting diode (LED) alternatives.
“It’s impossible for Democrats to leave us alone," Rep. Bob Good, R-Va., tweeted in response to the Biden administration's enforcement of the rules. "States must fight back.”
The move comes four months after the DOE finalized its regulations in April, and reverses a Trump administration rule that sought to protect incandescent light bulbs and afford consumers the freedom to choose what kinds of products they want to purchase.
