DuPont Executives Send Letter to Sen. Toomey Criticizing Attacks on Renewable Fuel Standard

Date Posted: October 15, 2015

Washington, D.C. — DuPont executives and employees released a letter Wednesday to Senator Pat Toomey stating their opposition to the Senator’s legislative attempts to undermine the Renewable Fuel Standard (RFS).

Any attempts to repeal or “reform” the RFS would significantly harm the biofuels industry, devastate America’s agriculture economy, and jeopardize future growth and development in advanced and cellulosic biofuels – the cleanest motor fuel in the world.

An excerpt from the letter is below:

We implore you to reconsider your stance on the RFS and work with us to create the right incentives for the biofuels industry to move beyond current technologies.

New investments will create jobs, reduce impacts to the environment, and reduce our reliance on foreign oil that will inevitably impact our economy and national security.
