Congressmen form Congressional Propane Caucus

Reps. Robert E. Latta, R-Ohio, and Timothy Walz, D-Minn., formed the Congressional Propane Caucus, and they invited colleagues to join them. The caucus will provide a bipartisan forum to engage members of Congress, their staff and the public on issues that relate to propane consumers and the industry.

Additional founding members of the caucus include:

• Rep. Chris Collins, R-N.Y.
• Rep. Sean Duffy, R-Wis.
• Rep. Mike Kelly, R-Pa.
• Rep. Ron Kind, D-Wis.
• Rep. Dave Loebsack, D-Iowa
• Rep Rick Nolan, D-Minn.
• Rep. Tom Reed, R-N.Y.
• Rep. Peter Welch, D-Vt.

According to Latta and Walz, developments in the energy sector created a strong domestic propane supply that will likely remain plentiful for many years. They add that the abundance places strains on the delivery infrastructure that needs to be addressed by the caucus to avert any future disruptions to propane consumers.
