"Ask me on November fourth." This month, Tim sits down with Jason Tolleson (Senior Director of Government Affairs, HPBA) to sort through a whirlwind of trade news, a shrinking legislative clock, and a big announcement about the industry's premier training program. In this episode, Tim and Jason cover: - What the latest round of tariffs actually means for hearth products—including the 25% Canadian counter-tariff on US wood and gas appliances taking effect September 8th, and why electric fireplaces dodged the hit - Why fuel choice legislation has a three-month window—and how Senator Mike Lee's new appliance efficiency bill could put the Berkeley decision into federal law if the Senate moves before the clock runs out - The Government Affairs Academy becomes the HPBA Leaders Academy—why the program's 18-year track record of building industry leaders, not just advocates, is driving its biggest evolution yet Don't miss this one if you want to understand how cross-border trade fights, election-year politics, and a reimagined leadership program will shape the hearth industry over the next six months—and what you can actually do about it.
