We Need A Lasting Solution To The Lies
Told By Big Oil and API
A Response to Jack Gerard and the American Petroleum Institute
Originally published June 15, 2018
Yesterday, June 14, 2018, my very good friend - the president and CEO of
American Petroleum Institute (API) - sent me a letter headlined "We Need a
Lasting Solution to the Broken Renewable Fuel Standard."
I say "my very good friend sent me a letter" because the email was addressed
to me specifically, and the letter itself starts with the words "Dear Marc."
Anyway, the first paragraph reads, "Without reform, the Renewable Fuel Standard (RFS) is headed down a path that could limit consumer choices, raise their
fuel costs and could even damage their vehicles."
I thought to myself, "Hallelujah, Jack Gerard and I finally agree on something!"
Not only was it Flag Day, but a special "ENERGY INDEPENDENCE FLAG
DAY!!!"
