Randy Feenstra (R-Hull) led a letter, along with 49 members of Congress, to U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Administrator Lee Zeldin in support of the EPA\u2019s proposed Renewable Volume Obligations (RVOs) under the Renewable Fuel Standard (RFS) \u201cSet 2\u201d rule, to express strong support for the reallocation of 100% of the waived gallons from any granted Small Refinery Exemptions (SREs), and to urge the EPA to finalize the rule as quickly as possible.\n\n\u201cPresident Trump and his administration have done great work to lower prices at the pump for American families. A final, timely Set 2 rule that includes strong RVOs and necessary reallocation represents the most meaningful commitment to farmers and rural communities, homegrown American energy, and affordability for consumers,\u201d said Rep. Feenstra. \u201cI will continue to work with Administrator Zeldin and President Trump to support homegrown Iowa biofuels and promote energy independence.\u201d\n\nFeenstra was joined in leading this effort by Reps. Nikki Budzinski (D-IL), Brad Finstad (R-MN), and Kristen McDonald Rivet (D-MI) and Sens. Pete Ricketts (R-NE), Amy Klobuchar (D-MN), Joni Ernst (R-IA), and Tammy Baldwin (D-WI).\n\nIn September, EPA issued a supplemental proposal considering proposed levels of reallocation for Small Refinery Exemptions.\n\nThe full letter can be read HERE.\n\n###", 1, "2026-03-30T01:40:41Z", "2026-04-06T19:32:54Z"]], "columns": ["url", "title", "date", "year", "month", "party", "chamber", "state", "member_name", "bioguide_id", "domain", "scraper", "source", "date_source", "text", "has_text", "collected_at", "updated_at"], "primary_keys": ["url"], "primary_key_values": ["https://feenstra.house.gov/media/press-releases/feenstra-leads-letter-epa-support-homegrown-biofuels-ahead-final-renewable"], "units": {}, "query_ms": 1.4286830555647612, "source": "dwillis/congress-press", "source_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press", "license": "MIT", "license_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press/blob/main/LICENSE"}
