They are coming for your small engines (boats, chainsaws, lawnmowers)! And while they’re at it, they don’t care if they screw up your auto/truck engine, either.

It for Muvver ErF!

Big mistake - 1% ethanol is too much!

The US Federal Bureaucracy is on autopilot. It does what it wants.

So, the government will pay to retrofit all of the machinery designed to operate on real gasoline, right? And the taxes will go down also, no doubt, in proportion to the non-gasoline in the fuel.

It shouldn’t even be legal to call it gasoline.

In other news, the chocolate rations will be raised to 20 grams a week.

This is one of the very few times when Trump is actually stupid.

Previously, E15 was restricted under air pollution requirements between June 1 and Sept. 15, as science shows burning ethanol in warmer temperature leads to heightened ground-level ozone pollution and smog.

Hmm - they've been trying to push that E85 crap for around a decade now - and yet I can't recall ever hearing that it was similarly restricted.

Back in 2014 or so, the talk was that E15 was going to be offered alongside E10, and recommended only for newer cars (I forget the model year threshold). Now it seems that they intend to blend it all at the higher ethanol content.

Someone needs to explain to the President the stupidity of burning corn in your gas tank.

Bad for classic cars too. Gas additive industry will also benefit

I despise ethanol.

Corn is for eating (and drinking!) not refining and burning.

BUT....

This should smooth out the spring and early fall gas price runups always blamed on “switching to summer production” and vice versa.

And if you believe that I have some waterfront property in Florida that might interest you.

My 2013 Honda Pilot needs E10 and will run poorly on E15. Pushing E15 will be hard on a lot of not very old cars on the road and be death to older cars and all those small engine mowers, trimmers, snow blowers and chainsaws in your garage. I drive 30+ miles to get no ethanol premium gas for all the small engine machines I own as even E10 is hard on these products.

Love my Prez, but he is being given the wrong advice here.

I understand you had better get the Farmers on your side come Election time, but Gasoline is best served pure as the driven snow.
