The following statement may be attributed to Iowa Farm Bureau Federation President Brent Johnson:
“Iowa Farm Bureau members applaud President Trump and EPA Administrator Zeldin for today’s action providing for year-round nationwide access to E15 fuel."Iowa leads the nation in biofuels production, and this action will provide consumers with access to a lower-cost fuel option at the gas pump, and the resulting demand for homegrown fuels will support Iowa’s farm families and rural communities.
"This summer marks the fourth consecutive year of an emergency summer waiver for E15 sales, and we ask that Congress act to make it permanent. Clearly, there is strong consumer demand for a lower-cost fuel option at the pump, and Iowa farmers stand by readily able to meet the growing demand for biofuels.”
