Ethanol Tax Credit Split Over Extension Tied to Bush Cuts
Ethanol supporters urge linking the ethanol blending tax credit to extending individual income tax cuts from the Bush era. They warn renewal will be hard in the next Congress and cite 400 000 jobs nationwide. Grassley and Harkin back ethanol, arguing its benefits to consumers and energy independence. Bruce Bartlett notes modest effects if the credit or tariff is not extended. The ethanol mandate stands at 12.6 billion gallons next year.
