What this bill does
AI plain-language summaryThis bill changes the rules about what kinds of gasoline can be sold during the summer months. Right now, gasoline mixed with 10% ethanol can be sold year-round, but gasoline mixed with up to 15% ethanol faces restrictions in the summer because of air quality rules — this bill removes those restrictions so that higher-ethanol gasoline can also be sold year-round. States that previously opted out of these rules would have their opt-outs canceled, but they could apply to opt out again after the bill becomes law. The bill also makes changes to a program that requires fuel sold in the U.S. to include a minimum amount of renewable fuel, directing the Environmental Protection Agency to give back certain compliance credits to small oil refineries in some situations.
