Senator Ernst on Transparency with the RFS: “All of this should be no-brainer stuff”

WASHINGTON – Senator Joni Ernst (R-IA) joined Bloomberg TV yesterday to discuss the latest with regard to the Renewable Fuel Standard (RFS). A portion of her interview is highlighted below.

KEVIN CIRILLI: Renewable Fuel Standard…what’s the latest on this?

SEN. ERNST: We continue to push the president. I specifically push him on E15 year-round, getting the Reid vapor pressure waiver done so we can sell product and open up for consumer choice regardless of what month they are purchasing their fuel in…We would love to see more transparency in the way the renewable identification numbers are used. We’d also like to see more transparency on how the small refinery waivers are being granted by the EPA. All of this should be no-brainer stuff.
