I've said it before, I'll say it again:

The law in question requires manufacturers to make more efficient INCANDESCENT lightbulbs.

If you like those better than CFLs, you can still buy them. They'll just use less electricity to produce the same amount of light.

This is a no-brainer.

Don't believe the TP disinformation. The act in question doesn't ban incandescent bulbs, only requires that they be made more efficient. I agree, the quality of light is superior, but opposing the imposition of efficiency standards is just dumb.

You'll still be able to get incandescent bulbs.

From an ACEEE mail-out:

The Facts:
• Incandescent bulbs aren't getting banned... in fact, they are getting better. Manufacturers are already making a variety of new energy-saving bulbs for homes, including more efficient incandescent bulbs.
• The new incandescent bulbs look, light, and turn on exactly like the bulbs we have been using for decades, but are 28 to 33 percent more energy efficient and are available in stores now.
• Consumers aren't required to "retire" bulbs or to purchase only CFL or LED light bulbs ---- consumers can use existing bulbs until they burn out and when a bulb burns out consumers can choose between efficient incandescent lamps or even more efficient CFL or LED light bulb options.
• The lighting industry supports this standard, along with efficiency, consumer, and environmental advocates.
