Remember last year, when it leaked that the left was trying to ban gas stoves and people like Chuck Schumer condescendingly insisted that no one was coming to take your gas stove?
That was a lie. They are coming for your gas stove.
A climate change group called the Gas Leaks Action Campaign has serious financial backing and is working with prominent liberal Democrats in the House and Senate.
FOX News reports:
Left-wing climate group with dark support takes leading role against gas stoves
A secretive group of climate activists with significant financial backing is quietly taking a bigger role in advocating for natural gas-powered appliances, like stoves.
The Gas Leaks Action Campaign – which appears to have first been established in late 2021 or early 2022 – recently launched a $1 million advertising campaign warning of the dangers posed by natural gas, the great effort never made of its kind. The group says on its website that natural gas harms the environment, pollutes the air in homes and makes stoves “constantly at risk of exploding.”
The group also led a campaign against the American Gas Association (AGA), the main national industry group representing natural gas suppliers. At an event in Washington, D.C. earlier this month, Gas Leaks hosted Senators Ed Markey, D-Mass., and Sheldon Whitehouse, D-R.I., along with several environmental groups such as the Sierra Club to blow up the AGA lobbying activities.
“Instead of turning off the fossil fuel spigot, our country has flooded the market with gas, and unless we do something, we’re all going to drown,” said Markey, who is an early sponsor of the Green New Deal.
It’s so funny how they assured us this wasn’t happening, yet here we are.
Meet the new player in the fight to ban gas stoves: gas leaks.

They can’t protect our border but they will save the planet by telling you what kind of stove you can own.
