Bipartisan Group Of Lawmakers Push EPA To Enact "Well-Rounded Biofuels Policies"

Description

According to a report by Reuters, a bipartisan group in the US House of Representatives has urged the Environmental Protection Agency to recognize “the significant pitfalls and costs” of renewable fuel standards in its future rulemaking and enact “well-rounded” biofuel policies. In a letter to EPA administrator Scott Pruitt, sixty-four bipartisan lawmakers wrote, "We look forward to working with you to put forth well-rounded biofuels policies that reflect market realities and benefit American families and businesses." The letter, whose list of signatories was led by Virginia Republican Bob Goodlatte and Vermont Democrat Peter Welch, said the standard had not accomplished any goals it was purportedly designed to meet, such as protecting the environment and revitalizing rural America.
