This resolution expresses support for designating May 2026 as "Renewable Fuels Month" to acknowledge the significant contributions of renewable fuels. It highlights their role in lowering fuel prices for consumers, enhancing energy independence by lessening reliance on foreign adversaries, bolstering rural communities, and reducing carbon emissions. The resolution details the broad benefits of renewable fuels, such as ethanol, biodiesel, renewable diesel, and sustainable aviation fuel. These fuels contribute substantially to the domestic economy by creating jobs and generating income, while also providing valuable markets for agricultural products like corn and soybeans. Furthermore, they offer significant environmental advantages, including substantial reductions in greenhouse gas emissions and improved air quality compared to traditional fossil fuels, and can be used in existing infrastructure.
