A group of U.S. Senators wants to know why the Biden administration has yet to distribute COVID aid to biofuel producers.
Iowa Republican Chuck Grassley and seven Senate colleagues sent a letter to USDA Monday asking for an update on the $700 million dollars allocated in June as part of USDA’s Pandemic Assistance for Producers initiative.
“Four months later, there’s still no money available.”
USDA indicated in a June press release the assistance would be implemented within 60 days.
