DC Bill would Give Some Gas Stove Owners Free Electric Stoves
A bill in Washington D.C. hopes to incentivize
gas appliance owners to make the switch to electric by offering low-income households free electric appliances.
The "Healthy Homes and Residential Electrification Amendment Act of 2023″ was first introduced last year by Democrat Council member Charles Allen.
The bill hopes to assist low-income families make the transition to electric by allowing households earning less than $80,000 to buy and install electric appliances for free, via the help of federal funds through the Inflation Reduction Act.
