Refrigerator Freedom Act: Halting Costly and Infeasible Energy Standards

This act aims to prevent the government from imposing energy conservation standards for refrigerators and freezers that are too expensive for consumers or technologically unfeasible. This means new regulations should not increase the net costs of purchasing, installing, or maintaining these appliances, nor should they mandate solutions that do not result in significant energy savings.
Key points
The government cannot impose energy standards for refrigerators and freezers if they increase consumer costs.
New standards must be technologically feasible and economically justified to avoid burdening citizens.
Changes must lead to significant energy conservation; otherwise, they will not be implemented.
