This week on the Labor & Energy Show w/JDoc & Krausey, Andrew Bray of the National Association of Landscape Professionals (NALP) joins the show to discuss California’s Small Off-Road Engine (SORE) regulations and the broader debate over restrictions on gas-powered equipment.

The conversation explores NALP’s concerns about the transition away from gas-powered lawn mowers, leaf blowers, chainsaws, pressure washers, portable generators and other small-engine equipment. 

Bray also discusses the policy debate surrounding these regulations, their potential impact on landscape professionals and businesses, and why decisions originating in California can become relevant to similar regulatory debates elsewhere in the country.

What happens in California energy policy doesn’t always stay in California.

This week on the Labor & Energy Show w/JDoc & Krausey, Jodie Muller, President and CEO of the Western States Petroleum Association (WSPA), joins the show for a conversation about California’s energy policies and what other states can learn from the West Coast.

This week on the Labor & Energy Show w/JDoc & Krausey, Ericka Perryman, Vice President of Communications at the American Fuel & Petrochemical Manufacturers (AFPM), joins the show to discuss the latest battle over California’s emissions and electrification policies.

The conversation examines six California Clean Air Act waiver rules that the EPA has transmitted to Congress for review under the Congressional Review Act, including Advanced Clean Cars I, greenhouse gas emissions standards, small off-road engines, and regulations affecting ports and marine vessels.

Ericka shares AFPM’s perspective on why the organization is urging Congress to act on the six measures, the potential implications for consumers and manufacturers beyond California, and the broader debate over how much authority California should have to establish emissions standards that can influence policies nationwide.
