The article title is: "Energy Department Acts to Lower Prices and Increase Consumer Choice with Household Appliances", which says nothing of substance.
The only part of the article that explained what was done states: "Today’s actions postpone the efficiency standards for the following home appliance rules:"
Would a title of "US energy department indefinitely postpones efficiency standards for home appliances" sound less deceptive to you?
Thank you for doing this. Ever since the election there’s a concerted effort to exaggerate and mislead people. This site will go the way of Reddit unless people like you are paying attention and take action.

The title is in fact correct. They are ending the appliance efficiency standards recently set.
It doesn't say they're ending "all" standards, which is what you're implying.
So you can drop the "flagging for lying".
They're ending ones that weren't even in force yet.
The title definitely sounds like they're wholesale removing them.
The title is very deceptive.

I just want you to add the word "new". If you do that I'll happily unflag.

The title was editorialized. That's grounds for flagging.
