Chesterfield, MO -- The U.S. House of Representatives voted 218 to 203 to today to pass H.R. 1346, the Nationwide Consumer and Fuel Retailer Choice Act. In response, Ohio farmer and National Corn Growers Association President Jed Bower released the following statement:
"We are thrilled to see that E15 legislation passed the House today and are deeply appreciative of the legislation's sponsors, co-sponsors and all its congressional supporters.
"Passage of this bill is essential to the success of corn farmers and rural communities, particularly as our growers face their fourth year of net losses and struggle with high input costs. It would also help drivers across the country who could save 10 to 30 cents per gallon on gas as fuel prices continue to rise.
"We encourage members of the Senate to quickly take up this bill and send it to the president's desk for signature."
