Washington, D.C. – Congressman Adrian Smith (R-NE) praised President Trump’s decision to allow the year-round sale of E15 in accordance with legislation introduced by Smith.

Washington, D.C. – Congressman Adrian Smith (R-NE) released the following statement after President Donald Trump signed into law the FAA Reauthorization Act of 2018 (H.R. 302).
Commercial air service is vital to our nation’s economy and this is especially true in rural parts of the country. Regular flights into and out of geographically isolated regions like Nebraska’s Third District provide a lifeline connecting our community to the rest of the nation, which is absolutely necessary to a vibrant economy.
