The Environmental Protection Agency rolled out a plan to allow more ethanol in the nation's gasoline supply Tuesday, after a long wait that had Cabinet officials sparring over the timing of the plan.
“Consistent with President Trump’s direction, EPA is working to propose and finalize these changes by the summer driving season,” said EPA Administrator Andrew Wheeler.
The proposed regulations would allow 15-percent ethanol fuels to be sold year-round, including in the summer. The high-ethanol fuel is currently banned by the EPA for sale during the summer driving season, which begins June 1, because of its high fuel volatility rating, which can hurt engine performance and can contribute to smog, especially during summer.

President needs to get advice real scientists, not wannabes bought and paid for by industry and Big Ag (who will benefit enormously from this). Less horsepower, less mpg, damages the engine, and more pollution. Absolutely moronic.
If you have to pay a higher price for gas with more ethanol in it just go to B&J Market.
On Mt. Herman road near airport to get the real thing. Saves your engine.
Did he consult with AOC on this?
5:55 so it doesn't just benefit the corn lobby it benefits car dealerships and auto loan companies
