Krishnamoorthi Calls on Trump Administration to Stop Blocking Year-Round E15, Cut Costs for Families and Farmers

February 3, 2026

WASHINGTON — As Illinois farmers stand ready to deliver cleaner, more affordable fuel, Congressman Raja Krishnamoorthi called on President Trump to end his administration’s obstruction of year-round access to E15 and allow lower-cost ethanol blends to reach consumers:

"Illinois farmers are ready to deliver cleaner, more affordable fuel—but the Trump Administration and its allies keep standing in the way. Guaranteeing year-round access to E15 would give corn growers the certainty they need, strengthen America’s energy security, and help families save at the pump. At a time when families are feeling squeezed by higher prices, this is a straightforward way to lower costs at the pump and put affordability first."
