The bill makes year-round sale of E15 gasoline legal and rewrites the Renewable Fuel Standard rules for small refiners. It amends the Clean Air Act so the one-pound Reid Vapor Pressure allowance that now applies to fuel blends with 10 percent ethanol instead applies to blends of 10 to 15 percent ethanol, which lets E15 be sold in summer months when it is currently restricted. States where the vapor pressure limit was applied after a governor's notification submitted between January 1, 2022, and enactment would have the paragraph (1) limit replaced by the paragraph (4) limit for 10 to 15 percent blends. It defines a small refining company as one producing no more than 75,000 barrels per day of obligated fuels in calendar year 2025. Beginning in 2028 the EPA Administrator may not apply or enforce any small refinery exemption extension, no refinery may petition for a year after 2027, and no petition may be submitted after July 1, 2028. Also beginning in 2028, the Administrator must cut each small refining company's compliance obligation by 75 percent, and may not reallocate the exempted volumes to other parties. Certain small refineries would get renewable fuel credits from the 2016 to 2018 compliance years returned or reinstated. The EPA must finalize a rule within 18 months modifying E15 fuel dispenser labeling and underground storage tank compatibility requirements. A new hardship exemption lets an at-risk small refinery petition for relief starting in 2028, capped for 2028 at renewable fuel with the energy content of 150 million gallons of conventional biofuel.
Each stop is a step the bill’s own record states, with the date it happened. A ring is a step not yet taken. A bill becomes law when the President signs it or Congress overrides a veto.
At least 46 organizations named this measure in a lobbying filing. A floor, not a total: they were counted by the client name on 205 quarterly reports filed by 18 lobbying firms and by 32 organizations lobbying for themselves in 2025 Q1, 2025 Q2, 2025 Q3, 2025 Q4, 2026 Q1, 2026 Q2 and 2026 Q3. An organization that lobbied this measure without naming it is not counted here.
The filings record that lobbying was reported on the measure. The form has no per-bill dollar figure and no field for a position, so nothing here says how much was spent or which side an organization took.
5 of them, in no ranking: Clean Fuels Alliance America F/K/A National Biodiesel Board; Phillips 66; American Petroleum Institute; Agricultural Retailers Association; Growth Energy Inc. Listed as filed, in the order the filings were read, and 41 others are not shown. These are not the largest, the earliest or the most active: we keep five names per measure, and the filings give no ranking.
From the LD-2 quarterly lobbying filings published at lda.gov by the Senate Office of Public Records. Read for 2025 Q1, 2025 Q2, 2025 Q3, 2025 Q4, 2026 Q1, 2026 Q2 and 2026 Q3. Our copy holds 24 fewer filings for 2025 Q1, 39 fewer filings for 2025 Q2, 42 fewer filings for 2025 Q3, 33 fewer filings for 2025 Q4, 28 fewer filings for 2026 Q1, 48 fewer filings for 2026 Q2 and 218 fewer filings for 2026 Q3 than the Senate's register counts, so those quarters are the filings we could read rather than every one filed. 2026 Q4 is still inside its filing window, so that quarter is only the filings posted so far.
