“The American Pyrotechnics Association applauds Congressmen Eric Burlison and Jared Moskowitz for launching the bipartisan Congressional Fireworks Caucus and recognizing the important role the fireworks industry plays in communities across the nation. Fireworks are a cherished part of America's heritage, bringing families and communities together to celebrate our nation's most meaningful traditions and milestones.
The formation of this bipartisan caucus reflects what fireworks have always represented—bringing Americans together in celebration of our shared history, our local communities, and the enduring spirit that has defined our nation for 250 years.
The Congressional Fireworks Caucus will provide Members of Congress with an opportunity to learn more about an industry that supports thousands of American jobs, contributes significantly to local economies, and remains deeply committed to safety through education, training, and collaboration with public safety professionals.
We look forward to working with Congressmen Burlison, Moskowitz, and Members of the caucus to promote policies that support responsible fireworks use, strengthen American businesses, and preserve the longstanding traditions that make fireworks an enduring part of our nation's celebrations."
— Julie L. Heckman Executive Director American Pyrotechnics Association
