President Donald Trump said Tuesday that he would move to roll back standards for light bulbs along with water-using appliances such as dishwashers.

In a post on his Truth Social platform, the president wrote that he is directing Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Administrator Lee Zeldin to “immediately go back” to environmental standards under the first Trump administration that were “terminated” under the Biden administration.
