USDA’s recently announced $700 million to biofuels producers could help lower the price at the pump.
Congresswoman Cheri Bustos of Illinois tells Brownfield the recent USDA aid will support more fuel options for drivers.
“It actually brings down the cost per gallon by somewhere between 50 and 60 cents a gallon,” Bustos said. “And it’s even more if you have and E85 station.”
She says biofuels producers took a big hit to their bottom line during COVID19 lockdowns with limited drivers on the road.
