| Message | Our interpretation is that the current laws do not prevent local governments from regulating the use of fireworks. Therefore, the only question is whether local governments should also regulate their sale. We say they should not. A patchwork of different laws regarding which fireworks can be sold under what circumstances will create a regulatory minefield for producers, retailers and consumers alike. - Sebastian Heldt (industry spokesperson) |
