The Wisconsin Legislature has introduced Senate Joint Resolution 80, which recognizes October 7, 2025, as National Propane Day in the state. This 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 the role of propane in various sectors, including residential, commercial, industrial, and agricultural, and its contribution to energy security and improved air quality.
The resolution also notes the economic impact of Wisconsin's propane industry, which heats over 278,000 homes, employs approximately 1,360 individuals, and generates more than $1 billion in economic activity annually. By celebrating National Propane Day, the Wisconsin Legislature aims to acknowledge the vital contributions of the propane industry to the state's energy landscape and the well-being of its residents.
