WALBERG SUPPORTS ALTERNATIVE FUELS RESEARCH BILL

U.S. Congressman Tim Walberg (R-MI), a member of the House Renewable Energy and Energy Efficiency Caucus, today issued the following statement after voting for the Advanced Fuels Infrastructure Research and Development Act, which passed the House tonight.

"I'm proud to work with members from across the aisle on this important legislation which will help ensure our technological infrastructure is in place to handle alternative fuels," Walberg said.
"This bill will aid research efforts and help develop much-needed new technologies as we pursue environmentally sound alternative fuel sources. Additionally, this legislation will help the agricultural community of south-central Michigan and work towards reducing our dependence on oil from the Middle East."
