Sen. Chuck Grassley: Trump EPA 'Screwed' Farmers With Biofuels Exemptions

Farmers reeling from President Donald Trump’s trade war with China suffered a new blow last week when his administration exempted dozens of oil refineries from requirements to use biofuels. The decision reduces demand for corn-based ethanol, slicing even deeper into farmers’ tanking incomes.

Waivers granted by the Environmental Protection Agency to 31 small petroleum refineries effectively exempts them from having to use more ethanol in their products.

“They screwed us ... when they issued 31 waivers,” Sen. Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa) told Iowa Public Television Friday (in the video above). He said fewer than 10 waivers were granted during “all the Obama years — and we thought that was bad.”

Chuckie continues his whine here.....

Welcome to the club, Chuckie.

Or the conservative farmers who complain about welfare payments that do not go to them.
