"Administrator Pruitt had a call with Governor Reynolds this morning, following meetings yesterday with Sens. Grassley, Ernst, Fischer, Roberts, Sasse, Rounds, and Thune. What Administrator Pruitt said in his confirmation hearing still stands: he doesn't want to take any steps to undermine the objectives in the statute of the RFS. We continue to work with RFS stakeholders to ensure EPA is applying the statute in a meaningful way, as Congress intended."
