Biofuels Access Bill Heads to the Governor’s Desk

Iowa Corn thanks the Senate and House for passing the Biofuels Access Bill (HF 2128) as it heads to the Governor’s desk.

“The Biofuels Access Bill is a key piece of ethanol legislation to keep Iowa as the leader of not only corn and ethanol production, but also in access to cleaner-burning, more affordable, home-grown ethanol,” said Lance Lillibridge, a farmer from Vinton, Iowa and President of the Iowa Corn Growers Association. “The Biofuels Access Bill is a top priority for ICGA because it expands the availability of E15 to consumers saving them an average of 10 cents per gallon, provides additional funding for retailers in the Renewable Fuels Infrastructure Program and creates additional markets for Iowa corn farmers.:”

“The Iowa Biofuels Access Bill is consumer friendly and will benefit all Iowans.  E15 is the cleanest, most affordable fuel available for all 2001 and newer vehicles, and that is especially important during this time of high gas prices,” Lillibridge stated.
