Congressman Flood: ‘House-Passage of Year-Round E-15 Supports Farmers, Families, and Rural America'
WASHINGTON, D.C. - Today, U.S. Congressman Mike Flood issued a statement following house-passage of H.R. 1346, also known as the "Nationwide Consumer and Fuel Retailer Choice Act." Congressman Flood is a cosponsor of the legislation, which lifts restrictions on the sale of 10 to 15 percent ethanol nationwide.
"For years, corn growers, working families, and President Trump have pushed for E15 to compete fairly as a nationwide fuel option," said Congressman Flood. "Today, the House finally took action and passed this commonsense answer to lower costs at the pump and expand domestic markets for our producers. Nationwide sale of E-15 supports farmers, families, and rural America and is set to be a boon for Nebraska. I look forward to Senate passage and President Trump's signature so families can finally have more choice and support our farmers at the pump."
