Congressman Flood Welcomes E15 Expansion, Calls for More

LINCOLN, NEBRASKA – Today, U.S. Congressman Mike Flood issued a statement following news that the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) will allow eight states to begin selling E15 year-round starting in 2025.

“While I am pleased that the EPA granted the governors’ request, this announcement still falls short of year-round E15 for all and delays implementation until 2025. E15 has had proven benefits for years, and it’s time to tear down remaining regulatory barriers, so every American can access this affordable fuel that helps clean up our air while growing our rural communities. If the Biden administration isn’t going to find a way to get this done, Congress must act to deliver year-round E15 for all Americans.”
