The LIT Act of 2025 reverses federal energy efficiency standards for general service light bulbs, primarily targeting incandescent lamps. The bill removes energy conservation requirements that the Department of Energy had established for these bulbs through regulations issued in 2022 and 2024, effectively eliminating mandatory efficiency standards in this category. This change would allow manufacturers and consumers to use incandescent bulbs without meeting the government's minimum energy performance requirements, though it does not mandate their use. The legislation contains no specified funding or implementation timeline—it takes effect upon passage and immediately invalidates the three prior Department of Energy rules governing light bulb standards.
