Grassley pushes biofuels amid push for broader infrastructure plan
Iowa Senator Grassley joins Ernst and others urging President Biden to back biofuels as a $1.7 trillion infrastructure package prioritizes electric vehicles and charging stations. The delegation argues the plan neglects ethanol and biodiesel, threatening about 40 000 Iowa jobs and corn prices. Grassley calls EV goals unrealistic while reaffirming support for fossil fuels and wind credits.
