The 2025 Assembly Joint Resolution 84, introduced by a group of representatives and senators, aims to recognize October 7, 2025, as National Propane Day in Wisconsin. The resolution highlights the significance of propane as a clean-burning, low-carbon fuel that has been meeting the energy needs of Americans for over a century. It emphasizes propane's role in supporting various sectors, including residential, commercial, industrial, and agricultural, while also contributing to improved air quality and reduced emissions.
Additionally, the resolution notes that Wisconsin's propane industry plays a vital role in the state's economy, heating over 278,000 homes, providing employment for 1,360 individuals, and generating more than $1 billion in economic activity annually. By designating National Propane Day, the Wisconsin Legislature aims to celebrate the contributions of the propane industry and raise awareness about its importance in ensuring energy security and meeting the diverse heating and energy needs of its residents.
