Illinois farmer and National Corn Growers Association (NCGA) President Kenneth Hartman Jr. sent a message today to farmers asking them to add their voice in support of legislation allowing the sale of year-round E15.
Farmers can add their signature to a letter that urges Congress to quickly take up the issue to eliminate an obsolete policy that prevents the sale of fuel with 15% ethanol blends, often referred to as E15.
“As traction continues to build on this issue, it is critical that corn growers make their voices heard, encouraging Congress to approve legislation to unlock access to E15 year-round,” Hartman said.
The call to action comes a day after the Nationwide Consumer and Fuel Retailer Choice Act was re-introduced in the House and Senate. The legislation would lift the ban on summer sales of E15.
