Klobuchar Statement on the Environmental Protection Agency's Newly Proposed E15 Rule

Statement

"Allowing for the year-round sale of E15 will give us cleaner, more affordable fuel choices--it will bring down prices at the pump, strengthen our homegrown energy economy, and decrease our dependence on foreign oil. I have been fighting for years to allow for the year-round sale of E15 and this announcement is a positive step for consumers, farmers, and the environment. However, the rule also proposes changes to the trading market and credits used to track compliance with the Renewable Fuel Standard. If it is determined that these provisions will delay or restrict E15 from getting to the market, I will work with my colleagues to ensure that those policies don't harm consumers."
