In this episode, Tim sits down with Jason Tolleson (Senior Director of Government Affairs, HPBA) to break down the latest developments in federal regulations and legislative battles affecting the industry. From surprise meetings with EPA Administrator Zeldin to the evolving timeline for new NSPS regulations, Jason reveals how small moments of advocacy can create massive opportunities for the entire industry. In this episode, Tim and Jason cover: • The narrowing target list for the National Fuel Choice Bill and why retailers should prepare for urgent calls to action • Why the current five-year certificate renewal system might be an unnecessary burden as EPA faces budget cuts and staff reductions • How a chance encounter at a New York event led to a direct conversation with the EPA Administrator—and encouragement for upcoming NSPS negotiations Don't miss Jason's reminder that every conversation matters in government affairs—from airport encounters with senators to collaborative meetings that exceed all expectations, the hearth industry's future depends on showing up and using our collective voice. —— Links from this episode: HPBA Codes & Standards Update Webinar - Thursday, May 28 | 12 PM ET —— This episode is a production of The Hearth, Patio & Barbecue Association and The Fire Time Network.
