Trump Signs Orders Scrapping Biden-Era Rules, Targets Appliance And Consumer Product Regulations

President Donald Trump has signed a series of executive orders repealing key Biden-era energy regulations. These include controversial standards imposed on gas water heaters, household appliances, commercial refrigerators, and walk-in freezers. Backed by Republican lawmakers, the move is framed as a victory for American households and small businesses. Trump stated the repeals will reduce unnecessary burdens, lower energy costs, and return decision-making power to consumers. The orders aim to undo what Trump called last-minute regulations under Biden that hurt everyday Americans and stifled economic freedom in the name of overregulation. #Trump2025 #TrumpOrders #BidenEraRepeal #EnergyRegulations #ApplianceStandards #GasWaterHeaters #FreeMarket #TrumpRepeals #HouseholdAppliances #RegulationRollback #TrumpExecutiveOrder #BidenRulesScrapped #WalkInCoolers #CommercialFreezers #EnergyFreedom #TrumpVsBiden #HomeownerRights #RegulatoryReform #TrumpWhiteHouse #TrumpPolicies Also Read Trump Reacts to Indian Missile Strikes: 'It’s a Shame,' Calls for Swift Resolution :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-reacts-to-indian-missile-strikes-it-s-a-shame-calls-for-swift-resolution-4145511.html?ref=DMDesc Trump and Carney Face Off in Oval Office Over Trade War and Tariffs :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-carney-faceoff-oval-office-trade-war-011-4145443.html?ref=DMDesc What Donald Trump’s 100% Tariff On Foreign Films Could Mean For Indian Entertainment Industry | Explained :: https://www.oneindia.com/business/what-donald-trump-s-100-tariff-on-foreign-films-could-mean-for-indian-entertainment-industry-expl-4144927.html?ref=DMDesc
