WASHINGTON, D.C. – On June 22, U.S. Congressman Mike Flood released the following statement in response to the Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA) new Renewable Fuel Standard (RFS) Rule.

“The Biden Administration has once again chosen to wage war on clean, domestic energy production instead of supporting America’s farmers. The EPA’s new RFS set rule undercuts the rapid growth in America’s booming bioeconomy and the real innovation happening right here in Nebraska.”

“Renewable fuels are a proven, market-ready solution that reduce greenhouse gas emissions and bolster domestic energy production. Our nation must continue to push for energy independence through an all-of-the-above approach that includes biofuels. I am committed to ensuring biofuels remains central to the future of American energy.

“Instead of tying the hands of Nebraska’s farmers and biofuel producers, the Biden EPA should work to promote clean energy, lower prices at the pump, and realize the full potential of biofuel production.”

You can read President Biden’s new biofuels rule here. Congressman Flood is a member of the Congressional Biofuels Caucus.
