American Pyrotechnics Association Urges Tariff Exemption to Sustain Fireworks Supply Chain and Support Community Traditions
SOUTHPORT, N.C., June 10, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- As the nation prepares for Independence Day and the 250th anniversary of its founding in 2026, the American Pyrotechnics Association (APA) is highlighting serious concerns regarding shifting tariff rates that threaten the viability of small fireworks businesses and the broader supply chain that supports American celebrations. The current tariff at 30% threatens to shutter small fireworks businesses nationwide and could undermine preparations for America's 250th anniversary celebrations in 2026. The Situation: U.S. fireworks companies rely almost entirely on China, which produces 99% of consumer fireworks and 90% of professional display fireworks. A combined tariff burden initially reached 145% under overlapping trade rules. Although that rate has recently fluctuated, the current level remains unmanageable for most industry operators. Fireworks are a seasonal, highly regulated, and culturally significant product with no viable domestic manufacturing alternative at scale. APA is urging the Trump administration and the Office of the U.S. Trade Representative to consider a tariff exemption or a more manageable tariff rate for fireworks. A similar exemption granted in 2019 recognized the unique characteristics of the industry and its reliance on a single source of supply. APA believes renewed relief would help stabilize supply chains for the next several seasons and allow the industry to manage through current challenges. Impact on Small Businesses and CommunitiesThe fireworks industry is largely composed of small, family-owned companies. These businesses: Operate on limited seasonal revenues, concentrated in the weeks surrounding July 4th and New Year's. Serve rural and suburban areas, partnering with nonprofits, faith-based groups, and civic organizations. Often provide fundraising platforms for local charities through retail stand partnerships, with proceeds supporting community programs. Must comply with stringent federal regulations and face high insurance and storage costs that limit operational flexibility. The tariffs were levied so late in the preparation for the 2025 Fourth of July season that many businesses were not contractually able to pass on the increase in cost to consumers. If the administration maintains a 30% tariff on fireworks imports, the industry will be compelled to pass these increased costs on to consumers, mirroring actions taken by other sectors. Supply Chain Challenges Uncertainty around continued access to Chinese supply, where over 99% of consumer fireworks and 90% of professional display fireworks are sourced, has already disrupted production, as manufacturers were forced to halt production and shipments. Tariff-related costs are compounding existing shipping, insurance, and logistics pressures. Many Professional Fireworks Display Companies are locked into long-term contracts and cannot raise prices to offset unexpected cost surges. Consumer sellers and professional display companies are actively exploring alternative supply options, but no feasible substitutes exist in the near term. Relief would allow time to pursue diversified sourcing while ensuring celebrations continue uninterrupted. APA's PositionAPA respectfully seeks: A sector-specific exemption or reduced tariff level to allow fireworks importers to maintain operations during a challenging economic period. Recognition that this request is not political, but rooted in the economic reality facing seasonal, safety-regulated small businesses. "Fireworks are an iconic part of America's celebration of freedom," said Julie L. Heckman, APA Executive Director. "This isn't about politics. It's about making sure communities can continue to celebrate while giving small businesses a path forward through supply chain challenges." About the American Pyrotechnics AssociationThe APA is the leading trade association of the fireworks industry. The APA supports and promotes safety standards for all aspects of fireworks. The APA has a diverse membership including regulated and licensed manufacturers, distributors, wholesalers, retailers, importers, suppliers, and professional display fireworks companies.

Texas is the surprising ground zero for an increasingly critical area — here's what you need to know
Texas has quickly become the largest clean energy market in the U.S. today. Yes, you read that right — the state synonymous with the oil and gas industry is now the leader in renewable energy. In 2025, 33% of all new renewable and storage projects will be built in the Lone Star State, according to data from Cleanview, the platform I founded that tracks clean energy growth. After hundreds of hours of building data pipelines, cleaning data, and reading through thousands of public documents tied to energy growth in Texas, we have a good sense of what is likely to be built. Here's the headline: Virtually all new power projects trying to connect to the state's grid are solar, wind, and battery storage. That'd be great in any market, but it's especially important in Texas. The state is ground zero for America's electricity demand growth story. Data centers, electrification, and population growth are all fueling huge growth in Texas. The country hasn't seen anything like it since the post-World War II era. Without all that new clean energy, Texas would be burning coal, natural gas, and oil to meet that new electricity demand. Instead, the state has been decarbonizing its grid through this period of huge growth. Clean energy has been good for everyone in Texas. Solar and wind have helped meet growing electricity demands. Batteries have helped prevent blackouts and brownouts. And everyone is paying cheaper electricity prices as a result. And new developments mean clean energy growth will be even faster in Texas, thanks to a new bill passed by the Texas legislature that will make it easier and faster to install solar and storage. Should the government be paying people to hunt invasive species? Definitely Depends on the animal No way Just let people do it for free Click your choice to see results and speak your mind. Today, solar permitting is absurdly slow. That's one reason why it costs three times more to install solar on your roof in the U.S. than it does in a country like Australia. In many cities, homeowners have to wait weeks for local officials to review paperwork, schedule inspections, and issue approvals. These delays increase costs and slow adoption. This new law changes that. It lets homeowners use licensed third-party reviewers to handle inspections and paperwork. Once the review is submitted, construction can begin immediately — and cities have just two business days to finalize the permit. This is a big deal for energy independence and resilience. It cuts red tape, reduces costs, and empowers more Texans to take control of their energy — all the more important in a state where millions lost power during Winter Storm Uri. The bill passed with overwhelming bipartisan support. And it shows what's possible when lawmakers focus on practical solutions instead of political posturing. There's a lot that we shouldn't learn from Texas. But when it comes to building clean energy, the state is doing something right. And anyone who wants to build clean energy faster should take note. Editor's note: If you want to use your voice to make a difference, you can look up how to contact your own state senators here — whether or not (and perhaps especially if not) they appear on this list. Michael Thomas is the founder of Cleanview, a platform that helps clean energy leaders track the energy transition in real-time, and the author of a newsletter about climate change, Distilled, that has been read by more than 50 million people.

Boost for Kemi Badenoch as Tories raise twice as much as Reform in political donations
The Conservatives have received twice as much money from donors as Reform in the first three months of this year, even as they sink in the polls. The financial backing will come as a boost to the under-pressure Tory leader Kemi Badenoch, days after her party dropped to fourth place in a major poll. Ms Badenoch's party took in £3.36m, Reform £1.5m, Keir Starmer's party £2.3m and the Liberal Democrats £1.5m, the Electoral Commission statistics show. The Tories hit out at Reform — also under pressure after losing and regaining its chairman in recent days — saying it had 'failed to secure the donations they claimed were coming' and had a 'fantasy approach to finances'. The Conservatives said Reform UK party sources had in January 'claimed a dinner in Mayfair had secured over £1 million in pledges yet there is no evidence in the latest Electoral Commission figures that support this.' They also pointed to figures which show 42 per cent of Reform UK's donations during the three months rely on £613,000 from deputy leader Richard Tice's company. But Mr Farage hit back, accusing Labour and the Conservatives of having relied on their ability to hand out peerages to bankroll their parties for decades. Asked about the donation figures, the Reform leader said: 'Is it easy to raise big money in politics? It's not... because I have not got any peerages to give out. 'The honours system is corrupted beyond belief, we don't have any gongs to give out.' Mr Farage went on to stress he is confident he is building relationships with the donors Reform needs, while stressing that the bulk of its revenue comes from supporters giving between £25 and £50. That almost a third of the money raised by the Conservatives came from one donor, however, will do little to ease Tory MPs fears their leader is not doing enough to build the kind of wide support needed to win the next election. The largest single donation was £1m from former Labour supporter Jez San, a computer game entrepreneur. David Ross, the founder of Carphone Warehouse, who halted donations to the party during its post-Boris Johnson years, is also listed as giving £40,000, in two separate donations. Mr Ross, who once 'facilitated' accommodation for Mr Johnson on the island of Mustique, will become the party's senior treasurer later in the year. Reginald Collins, a longtime member of Labour, was the party's largest individual donor, leaving it £350,000 when he died. The Liberal Democrats had the most individual donors, at 246. The Tories had 122, Labour 93 and Reform 70. The Tories said the latest figures build on the momentum of the previous quarter, where the party raised £1.9 million – more than all the other major political parties combined. The party said major donors were returning 'to support Kemi Badenoch's mission of renewal to completely rewire Britain for the 2030s, based on Conservative values of sound money, lower taxes, and a smaller government that does fewer things but better.' Lord Dominic Johnson, co-chairman of the Conservative Party, said: 'The Conservative Party's finances are in great shape. These impressive figures show momentum, building on the strong figures last quarter. 'It marks stark contrast with Labour, ever more reliant on union donations, and Reform, still reeling from internecine warfare, struggling to make good on fantasy pledges and having to be bailed out by Richard Tice. 'We are the party of sound money and economic credibility and donors old and new are backing Kemi's mission of Conservative Renewal.'
