The bill requires the Secretary to consider the economic impact of such standards, including the potential unavailability of certain products in the U.S. based on their fuel source. It also requires disclosure of stakeholder meetings with entities connected to China or advocating for energy use restrictions.

Additionally, the bill prohibits the Secretary from finalizing, implementing, or enforcing the proposed rule on energy conservation standards for consumer cooking products.
