Overview

The Nationwide Consumer and Fuel Retailer Choice Act of 2025 amends the Clean Air Act to allow for the year-round sale of gasoline blended with 10% to 15% ethanol (E10 and E15). It removes states’ ability to block the summer ethanol waiver, while allowing states to re-apply for exclusions after the bill’s enactment. Additionally, the bill modifies the Renewable Fuel Standard, directing the EPA to return compliance credits to small refineries that previously faced challenges meeting volume obligations.
