Bill overview
This bill, the Corn Ethanol Mandate Elimination Act of 2021, seeks to remove the requirement for a specific amount of corn ethanol to be blended into gasoline. It specifically targets the existing Renewable Fuel Standard (RFS) under the Clean Air Act, which mandates 36 billion gallons of renewable fuel, including corn, to be blended annually. The bill maintains the requirements for other types of renewable fuels like advanced biofuel and cellulosic biofuel. By eliminating the corn ethanol mandate, the bill aims to reduce the pressure to produce corn for fuel and potentially lower greenhouse gas emissions.
