Sen. Deb Fischer speaks on the push for year-round E15 legislation, natural disaster relief

EPA is allowing expanded E15 access ahead of the summer driving season. While it is welcome news, the ag sector is calling on Congress to take up year-round legislation, which was recently re-introduced by Senator Deb Fischer.

She joined RFD-TV’s own Tammi Arender to speak on the push for legislation, how it benefits both farmers and consumers, and her legislation to expedite federal relief for farmers after natural disasters.
