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.
