There are more warning signs that year-round E15 legislation is in trouble. Michigan Democratic Senator Elissa Slotkin told USDA Secretary Rollins at a recent hearing that strong influence from interest groups is stalling year-round E15.
According to Slotkin, there is an urgent need for Rollins to personally engage with senators to get year-round E15 to the president’s desk.
Iowa Senator Chuck Grassley showed concerns about Congress having to rely on temporary solutions that would not allow year-round E15 to becoming a law.
The ongoing political polarization in Congress again threatens government funding and top farm issues like E15 and a farm bill.
