Growth Energy CEO Tom Buis released the following statement in response to the release of the Tax Package:
“We would like to thank President Obama and our Congressional champions for recognizing the tremendous value of our nation becoming less dependent on foreign oil, creating jobs in America, improving our environment and strengthening our national security. Ethanol is the available, affordable alternative to gasoline today that can move our nation toward a cleaner and more secure energy future. An extension of the credit will give the industry certainty, and Congress the opportunity, to move forward with reforms that will remove the infrastructure barriers to the fuels market, such as our Fueling Freedom plan, next year.”
