- Would choose E15 over E10.

- Would oppose measures to scrap the RFS. 

- Would support a standalone bill to fixing the RVP problem so that E15 can be sold during the summer months. He would also support actions to call the EPA to take administrative action to bring RVP parity to E15 and measures requiring gasoline blendstocks with a lower RVP to be used thus eliminating the need for a waiver for both E10 and E15. 

- Would support measures to fund infrastructure retrofits to increase the availability of E15 - E25.
