THE RENEWABLE FUEL STANDARD IS BROKEN AND HARMING AMERICANS




Learn how this failed policy is impacting you!


CONGRESS ENACTED THE RENEWABLE FUEL STANDARD (RFS) IN 2005 AND EXPANDED IT IN
2007 TO REDUCE AMERICA’S DEPENDENCE ON FOREIGN CRUDE OIL BY ENCOURAGING THE USE
OF DOMESTIC, ENVIRONMENTALLY FRIENDLY RENEWABLE FUELS IN OUR GASOLINE AND
DIESEL. UNFORTUNATELY, THE RFS HAS BEEN NOTHING MORE THAN MANY YEARS OF FAILED
POLICY THAT IS HURTING CONSUMERS AND BUSINESSES, AND MAY ULTIMATELY FORCE
AMERICANS TO PAY MORE AT THE PUMP.


 


“IN THE NEARLY 10 YEARS SINCE THE ESTABLISHMENT OF THE RFS, THE PROGRAM HAS
FALLEN SHORT
OF ITS LEGISLATIVE GOALS AND IS IN NEED OF STRUCTURAL REVISION.”

Doug Parker

Former Director of the Environmental Protection Agency’s Criminal Investigation
Division

EXPLAINS HOW THE FINANCIAL BURDEN OF RENEWABLE IDENTIFICATION NUMBERS IS NOT

ALBATROSS AS MERCHANT REFINERS WHO DO NOT HAVE RETAIL OPERATIONS.  __

THREE THINGS TO KNOW ABOUT THE RFS



WHILE NOBLE IN ITS INTENT, THE RFS IS BROKEN AND MUST BE FIXED IMMEDIATELY.



THE RFS BLENDER LOOPHOLE PLACES A COSTLY AND UNFAIR BURDEN ON THE WRONG
ENTITIES, WHICH THWARTS THE INTENT OF THE LAW.



THE EPA CAN FIX THE BROKEN RFS, BUT HAS YET TO DO SO. CONGRESS MUST TELL THE EPA
TO ACT NOW TO PROTECT CONSUMERS FROM RFS-RELATED HARM AT THE PUMP.


TAKE ACTION!
