This week, I was proud to vote for the bipartisan Nationwide Consumer and Fuel Retailer Choice Act, which will allow for the sale of E15 ethanol fuel year-round. Expanding access to E15 is a win-win.

Now, we need the Senate to act fast and get this bill across the finish line. ____________________
