National Fuel Choice Bill and Tax Credit Jeopardy

With Jason Tolleson

In this episode, Tim sits down with Jason Tolleson from HPBA to recap the month. They discuss tariffs, what’s happening at the state and federal levels, the jeopardization of the federal tax credit for wood and pellet appliances, and Initiative 2066 being overturned in Washington.

They also cover:

  • The April Executive Order initiating the DOJ review of state and local restrictions on fuel use.
  • Status at the Department of Energy and the efforts to remove specific natural gas bans.
  • Reorganization at the EPA and compliance efforts in order to provide fair, predictable regulation at the national level.
  • Changing status of tariffs, a 90-day pause agreement with China, and the pending US-Canada-Mexico status.
  • Congress and the introduction of the Energy Choice Act that prohibits state and local governments from limiting energy sources available to customers.
