The Renewable Fuels Association thanked 16 state attorneys general, led by Iowa’s Brenna Bird, who called on congressional leadership to expedite passage of a bill allowing the year-round, nationwide availability of the lower-cost E15 fuel blend.
“We thank these attorneys general, from Alaska to Florida, for their leadership on a matter of importance to the families in their state, and indeed all 50 states,” said RFA President and CEO Geoff Cooper. “They understand the importance of renewable fuels like U.S.-made ethanol in enhancing American energy independence, helping families save money at each fill-up, reducing pollution and bolstering the rural economy.”
In addition to Bird, other signers include Steve Marshall of Alabama, Treg Taylor of Alaska, James Uthmeier of Florida, Chris Carr of Georgia, Todd Rokita of Indiana, Kris Kobach of Kansas, Liz Murrill of Louisiana, Andrew Bailey of Missouri, Mike Hilgers of Nebraska, Drew Wrigley of North Dakota, Dave Yost of Ohio, Dave Sunday of Pennsylvania, Alan Wilson of South Carolina, Marty Jackley of South Dakota, and John McCuskey of West Virginia.
“American cars already run on E15, the attorneys general write. “And the bipartisan, bicameral Nationwide Consumer and Fuel Retailer Choice Act of 2025 will give all States equal access to E15 year-round. This law will fix the Clean Air Act’s exemption that only allows E10 to be sold year-round—despite E10 and E15 having very similar effects on the environment. E15 gas is also meaningfully cheaper than E10—giving relief to Americans’ wallets. There has never been more support from across the energy industry for this reform.”
