We are fighting for Congress and the Biden administration to fix the RFS to: Protect and support thousands of good-paying American jobs, including thousands in organized labor; Level the playing field so that smaller retailers – many of which are minority-owned – and independent refiners can compete against large, multi-national companies; Protect our national security and enhance U.S. global competitiveness; and, Protect consumers from fuel supply chain disruption and price hikes at the gas pump. read more
