IRFA congratulates Trump on reelection as president of United States


The Iowa Renewable Fuels Association congratulated President Donald Trump Nov. 6 on his reelection.

 



IRFA said it and its members look forward to working with Trump in prioritizing American energy dominance in support of rural farmers across the nation.

 



“IRFA members congratulate Donald Trump on being reelected president and look forward to partnering with President Trump and his administration to get the rural economy back on track,” said Monte Shaw, IRFA’s executive director.




“The best way to boost farm income and grow rural America is to boost demand for American biofuels,” he said.

 



Shaw noted that, just days before the election, Trump stated, “I love the farmers, and they love me.”

 



The election results “clearly show that after an unprecedented two-year drop in farm income, rural America and farmers put their faith in President Trump to turn this around,” Shaw said.




“There is much President Trump can do during his first 100 days to help farmers and biofuels producers,” he added.

 



This, according to Shaw, includes nationwide, year-round E15 and providing clarity on energy incentives for biodiesel producers.

 



“There is much more to be done to enable biofuels to help power American energy dominance and, at the same time, make the rural economy great again,” Shaw said.




“IRFA members stand ready to partner with President Trump to get it done,” he added.

 



IRFA represents the state’s liquid renewable fuels industry and works to foster its growth.

 



Iowa is the nation’s leader in renewable fuels production with 42 ethanol refineries capable of producing 4.7 billion gallons annually—including 34 million gallons of annual cellulosic ethanol production capacity—and 10 biodiesel facilities with the capacity to produce 416 million gallons annually.
