Loebsack, a co-chair of the Biofuels Caucus, has led the fight for a strong RFS and highlighted its importance to Iowa.\u201cToday\u2019s announcement is more than just a number. The RFS represents the hard work Iowa\u2019s farmers and rural communities put into creating a fuel source for the future and decreasing our dependence on foreign oil. While today\u2019s announcement is far below the level mandated by Congress, it is a step in the right direction. I will continue to work with the EPA and fight to ensure the RFS remains good for Iowa.\u201d", 1, "2026-03-30T12:14:52Z", "2026-03-30T12:14:52Z"]], "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": ["http://loebsack.house.gov/news/documentsingle.aspx?DocumentID=394939"], "units": {}, "query_ms": 0.7771491073071957, "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"}
