WASHINGTON, DC — In response to the recent announcement that the Supreme Court of the United States declined to hear the challenge to the Ninth Circuit’s decision on the California Low Carbon Fuel Standard, Growth Energy and RFA issued the following statement:
“We are extremely disappointed that the Supreme Court has declined to review the Ninth Circuit’s decision, despite the broad support for the petition – including 21 states.
