Should the biofuel plan from EPA not result in restoring demand for ethanol as has been pledged by President Donald Trump, Sen. Joni Ernst, R-Iowa, said she will call for EPA Administrator Andrew Wheeler to leave his post.
"If we get to a point where the EPA is not following through on what the president has directed them to do then we will have to hold them accountable," Ernst said Thursday in remarks to Iowa reporters. "And I, at that point if we do not see that result, that 15 billion gallons, then I am ready to call for the resignation of Andrew Wheeler.”
She said if that were to happen, she would go to President Donald Trump and say, “‘Andrew Wheeler is the one that is not following through with your commitment to America’s farmers. You need to get rid of him.'"
