Grassley backs Pruitt but faults EPA on ethanol policy

He cited EPA waivers from the Renewable Fuel Standard as a major concern, calling some moves a bailout for billionaires, while praising revocations of Obama era rules on emissions and Waters of the United States. Grassley’s remarks came during a Clinton ribbon cutting for Lyondell Basell and during stops in Davenport and Cedar Rapids.
