Senators meet with EPA’s Pruitt
Four U.S. Senators in biofuels states met with EPA Administrator Scott Pruitt Tuesday urging him to keep strong Renewable Fuels Standard volumes in place. They are Senators Chuck Grassley and Joni Ernst of Iowa, Deb Fischer of Nebraska and John Thune of South Dakota. Grassley says it’s Pruitt’s duty to follow congressional intent and he’ll be watching closely while holding the Administration accountable. Grassley also said President Trump promised him, twice, he would support the renewable fuels industry. Senator Ernst issued a statement after the meeting Tuesday saying Administrator Pruitt again claimed that he will not do anything to undermine the RFS program. But, Ernst said, he has said that before and now it needs to be seen.
