Let there be light bulbs! Trump looks to flip switch on Obama ban

Let there be light bulbs! Trump looks to flip switch on Obama ban:

The development in a war that began when Congress restricted some bulbs to increase energy efficiency during the George W. Bush administration was reported by Tim Nerozzi at AMI Newswire.
The original campaign to ban incandescent bulbs was criticized as one of the “most blatantly unconstitutional and amazingly stupid congressional acts,” inspiring the creation of a bumper sticker that states “I’m pro-choice on lightbulbs.”
Opponents of the ban argued incandescents have benefits not offered by alternatives.
