The Biden administration's efforts to maximize energy efficiency of appliances through regulation could negatively impact consumers, according to experts and manufacturers.

"It should be up to the individual user as far as how much they choose to save," Travis Fisher, a senior fellow at the Heritage Foundation's Center for Energy, Climate, and Environment, told Fox News Digital."The concept of a mandate really comes from the idea that the government knows better than the end user of what kind of appliances they should be buying. I don't buy into that premise at all.

"The reality is that we are not talking about saving huge amounts of energy from these new regulations." The comments from experts come after the Association of Home Appliance Manufacturers , the leading U.S. trade group representing appliance makers and suppliers,, saying DOE's recent clothes washer regulations"would have a disproportionate, negative impact on low-income households" by eliminating cheaper appliances from the market.

Notini added that the DOE standards would force a staggering 98% of the top-loading clothes washer products currently being sold, off the market within four years. She also pointed to figures showing the industry has already improved efficiency by 70% over the last 20 years while machines have gotten 50% larger on average.

Koo Koo mind your own business!

Every time someone suggests something to help any environmental issue, you ALL complain. There is no war on household appliances! What will happen is if someone's home or the outside air becomes so polluted that it's hard to breathe, u all will be the FIRST to blame & complain🙄

Another fake outrage!

wendyp4545 Remember when they had to get rid of all the makeup in the Batman movie?

Do not trust Fox New’s “experts”

Biden does not give a damn about anything

The entire administration is incompetent and doing harm to the American consumer at all levels.

Democrats will do anything to destroy the American way of life.

The sooner we can get him out of office, we can start to,reverse all of the damage he’s accomplished! 🤬

Must be getting closer to the indictments if Fox considers this to be news.

More faux outrage for Fox's melted snowflake viewers who can't be told the truth or else they'll leave for another network. Don't even think about asking about all the text messages and secret recordings of Fox hosts and management...because Fox isn't covering the Dominion case.

War on household appliances?! This is a stretch...even for you, Fox.

Biden's EOs won't change anything at my house.

Again, the inmates are running the asylum.
