Blending ethanol into Biden’s climate plan
Episode description
The Biden administration is calling for spending tens of billions to help speed the adoption of electric vehicles and bring on the future of clean transportation. But farmers fear that shift away from liquid fuels and they say Biden’s ignoring home-grown biofuels. Now, they’re putting some of their considerable political power into making sure ethanol and other fuels get something from any upcoming infrastructure legislation. Today, POLITICO’s Ryan McCrimmon, on the administration’s plan to balance out the interests of farmers and the push for clean transportation.
