Eliminating the RFS and Its Destructive Outcomes Act

HR 2460 would repeal the Renewable Fuel Standard (RFS), a Clean Air Act requirement mandating that fuel producers blend renewable fuels like ethanol into gasoline. This repeal would directly affect oil refiners and fuel distributors who currently must meet these blending quotas. The bill removes Section 211(o) of the Clean Air Act and updates related provisions in the Clean Air Act and Petroleum Marketing Practices Act to eliminate references to the RFS program. If enacted, the measure would eliminate the federal mandate for renewable fuel blending in transportation fuels.
