Biden admin's latest home appliance crackdown: ceiling fans

Department of Energy wants ceiling fans to be more energy efficient

Ceiling fans are now the latest target in the Biden administration's green agenda, sparking pushback from Republicans and manufacturers.

The Department of Energy is proposing a rule that would require ceiling fans to be more energy efficient, arguing the move would save U.S. households on energy costs.

According to the Energy Department's analysis, the new rules would save households about $39 over the lifespan of the new energy-efficient fan. However, the cost to manufacturers associated with the increased equipment will total $86.6 million per year, the department said.

The Energy Department has been on the warpath to impose more stringent regulations on household appliances for the past several months, proposing new standards for gas stoves, ovens, washing machines, refrigerators, air conditioners, dishwashers and other essentials as part of its mission to advance energy efficiency and conservation.

The Biden administration is doing everything feasibly possible to ruin small businesses as well as to make things more expensive for the American consumer.

$86.6 million minus $39 = $86.5 million. It doesn't seem worth it to me.
