WASHINGTON, D.C. – Statement from Chet Thompson, President and CEO of American Fuel & Petrochemical Manufacturers, in response to the Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA) release of the 2018 Renewable Fuel Standard (RFS) Renewable Volume Obligations (RVOs):
“Unfortunately, it appears that EPA did exactly what Senator Grassley demanded, bowing the knee to King Corn. We think this action is bad for U.S. manufacturing and American consumers and encourage Congress to finally fix the RFS.”
