A Midwestern governor is once again throwing her support behind year-round sales of E15.

After signing onto a letter with eight other state leaders asking the Environmental Protection Agency to grant them authority to sell the fuel, Kansas Governor Laura Kelly pulled her support, but tells Brownfield “I support E15 year-round, and actually, I’ve always have.”

She said her reasoning was simple. “Missouri had not signed onto it.  Had Kansas signed onto that, it would have made things incredibly complicated on the border.”

Ryan Flickner, senior director of advocacy with Kansas Farm Bureau, says conversations continue with the administration.
