Dear Senators Feinstein and Coburn:
The undersigned organizations support your legislation to end the federal requirement to blend up to 15 billion gallons a year of corn ethanol into gasoline.
The Corn Ethanol Mandate Elimination Act of 2013 helps to address the consequences of a fuel mandate that is damaging our economy, driving up food prices at home and abroad, degrading our natural resources and endangering consumers while failing to achieve the energy independence once promised.
As Congress debates changes to the Renewable Fuel Standard, eliminating the corn ethanol mandate would alleviate the damage caused when the interests of one industry is favored above all.
We thank you for your leadership and look forward to working with you on this important issue.
