On Friday, President Trump signed an Executive Order to repeal a Biden-era rule on walk-in coolers and freezers.
Transcript
00:00Next, Mr. President, we have House Joint Resolution 24.
00:06This is the same basic idea, but this relates to walk-in coolers and freezers and other refrigeration devices.
00:13Again, last-minute Biden-era regulation that hits ordinary Americans hard.
00:18And what do they do?
00:20They put in...
00:22Increase the energy efficiency requirements for walk-ins coolers and freezers,
00:26and therefore putting an undue burden on businesses across the country.
00:31Everything from restaurants to pharmacies, you know, hospitals were all going to be impacted.
00:36To a point where it didn't work.
00:38In other words, they made the restrictions so strong that it didn't work.
00:40And it was going to cost them so much money to actually meet the energy efficiency standards,
00:45which didn't really save much money.
00:46So this is going to actually help our small businesses across the country, Mr. President.
00:50Go ahead.
00:56Many manufacturers would have had to close stop lines, shut down entire lines of businesses.
01:05And I just want to say, rescinding these, this was done days before.
01:09Days before you took office, they pushed through these regulations.
01:13They didn't think about the cost to businesses.
01:15They didn't put American interests first.
01:17They didn't put American businesses first.
01:19I am so grateful we finally have a president who's not only walking back these insane, burdensome regulations
01:26that are ultimately going to cost us Americans and American businesses,
01:29but that you are thinking about the next generation.
01:33And as we're leading into Mother's Day, some of us are trying to parent and serve this country at the same time.
01:38Thank you for welcoming my son, who is 15, with his mother serving,
01:43watching what we're doing for him and generations to come.
01:46You are making this country stronger for them.
01:48Thank you very much.
01:49Good luck, right?
01:50Take care of you, Mom.
01:51Okay.
01:52I bet.
01:53You want to hold that up, too?
01:54Thank you, sir.
01:58That's a big one, isn't it, huh?
02:01Common sense.
02:02It's all about common sense, right?
02:04Okay, well.
