A Message from SEMA's Action Netowrk that I thought might be worthwile to share:
U.S. Congress Introduces Bill to Reform Ethanol Mandate
Legislation (HR 704) has been introduced in
the U.S. House of Representatives to prohibit the sale of E15 (gasoline that is
15% ethanol) and eliminate the federal Renewable Fuel Standard’s (RFS) mandate
that 15 billion gallons of corn-based ethanol be blended into the U.S. fuel
supply each year. The EPA has turned to sales of E15 to achieve the law’s
artificial mandate. Ethanol, especially in higher concentrations such as E15,
can cause damage to older vehicles.
Please Contact Your Member of Congress (contact information below) to Request Support for HR 704
Ethanol can cause metal corrosion and dissolve
certain plastics and rubbers, especially in older vehicles that were not
constructed with ethanol-compatible materials.
HR 704 would eliminate the unrealistic
mandates imposed under the RFS such as requiring refiners to blend 36 billion
gallons of biofuels by 2022.
HR 704 would prohibit the sale of E15 gas in
order to help meet the artificial RFS deadlines.
HR 704 would protect older vehicles from the
risks posed by E15.
DON’T DELAY! Please contact your Member of Congress in Washington, DC immediately to
request their support for RFS reform. Please email a copy of your letter to Eric Snyder at
[email protected]. Also, please forward this
Alert to your fellow automotive enthusiasts. Urge them to join the SAN and help
defend the hobby! Thank you for your assistance.
