Klobuchar Statement on EPA E15 Proposal

Statement

Date: March 2, 2023
Issues: Environment

U.S. Senator Amy Klobuchar, a senior member of the Senate Agriculture Committee, released the following statement in response to the Environmental Protection Agency's proposed E15 rule.

"Giving certain states including Minnesota the flexibility to use E15 in the summer starting in 2024 is a good first step, but we need action now. In order to boost our economy and decrease prices at the pump, we should be giving consumers access to E15 nationwide this summer to prevent a disruption in sales. This is why I joined Senators from both sides of the aisle to call on the Administration to remove barriers to E15 starting in summer 2023, and I'll keep pushing to pass bipartisan legislation that I introduced to make E15 available year-round for all Americans."
