"If the appliance is regulated by the feds, there should be nothing that impedes the fuel that is used to make that appliance serviceable." In this episode, Tim sits down with Jason Tolleson (Senior Director of Government Affairs, HPBA) for an update on the fight for fuel choice—from Capitol Hill to Washington state to a constitutional amendment on Colorado's November ballot. With Congress heading home for election season, the clock is ticking on a two-year window that closes at the end of the year. In this episode, Tim and Jason cover: - Why two federal fuel choice bills—Langworthy's House bill and Mike Lee's appliance standards play—are stalled until after the election, and what happens if the clock runs out - How Washington's Supreme Court overturned a voter-approved ballot initiative on a technicality—and why Jason says the fight there isn't over - Why retailers should treat legislator outreach like a quarterly punch list item, especially in states like Texas and Virginia where the window to be heard is only a few months long Don't miss this one—if you've been waiting for someone else to speak up for the industry, Jason makes a compelling case that the someone is you, and the time is before the legislative window slams shut. —— This episode is a production of The Hearth, Patio & Barbecue Association and The Fire Time Network.
