Hinson Slams Supreme Court Decision that Would Crush Iowa Farmers and Biofuel Producers

Washington, D.C. – Congresswoman Ashley Hinson (IA-01) released the following statement on the U.S. Supreme Court decision that would enable the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency to grant new extensions for Small Refinery Exemptions (SREs). 

"Today's Supreme Court decision would allow some oil refineries to have expired SRE waivers from biofuel blend mandates reinstated. This is a devastating blow to farmers in Iowa and across the nation. The Administration must not grant these exemptions to small oil refineries and should work to maintain the integrity of the renewable fuel standard, and I will continue calling on them to do so. I will never stop fighting for Iowa's farmers and biofuel producers in Congress."
