The following statement may be attributed to Iowa Farm Bureau Federation President Brent Johnson: 

"The Iowa Farm Bureau commends the U.S. House of Representatives for its bipartisan vote supporting nationwide, year-round E15.  

This legislation is a win for Iowa farmers and consumers alike.  As the nation’s leading biofuels producer, the added demand will boost Iowa’s ag economy during a challenging time, and it provides drivers with a lower cost option at the pump amid rising fuel costs.  

We are thankful for Reps. Feenstra, Hinson, Miller-Meeks and Nunn for their unwavering support for homegrown fuel and urge the U.S. Senate to follow the lead of the U.S. House to pass this legislation for farmers and all Americans.”
