"The Biden administration is proposing to revoke Trump-era rollbacks to washer, dryer and dishwasher efficiency.
The Energy Department in a notice issued Tuesday put forward a new rule that would reverse the Trump-era changes, which exempted some of these appliances from energy and water conservation standards by creating a separate class of products for short-cycle clothing washers and dryers as well as dishwashers.
By adding them to separate classes, prior standards were no longer applicable.
In its proposal to revoke the rules, the Biden administration said that it did not identify any residential dishwashers that offer such short cycles — less than 60 minutes from washing through drying."
