Joe Biden is officially not coming after your gas stove. He never was.

The Energy Department announced new energy efficiency standards for ovens and gas stoves on Monday that are weaker than what it initially proposed last year. The move comes after Republicans and some centrist Democrats accused the Biden administration of seeking to ban gas stoves – a move the Biden rule never actually contemplated. POLITICO’s Kelsey Tamborrino breaks down the details and politics of Biden’s new gas stove rule. Plus, the Supreme Court will hear arguments in late March about the Biden administration's objections to a multistate agreement governing the Rio Grande river.    For more news on energy and the environment, subscribe to Power Switch, our free evening newsletter: https://www.politico.com/power-switch And for even deeper coverage and analysis, read our Morning Energy newsletter by subscribing to POLITICO Pro:  https://subscriber.politicopro.com/newsletter-archive/morning-energy   Josh Siegel is an energy reporter for POLITICO.  Kelsey Tamborrino is a reporter covering clean energy for POLITICO.
