WASHINGTON, D.C. — American Fuel and Petrochemical Manufacturers released the following statement regarding the passage of H.R. 1.
H.R. 1 is an investment in U.S. energy security. Fuel and petrochemical manufacturers, and the energy infrastructure companies that make it possible to get our feedstocks and products from point A to point B, welcome the additional clarity and regulatory certainty this legislation will provide. We are especially appreciative of Representative Dan Crenshaw’s legislation in H.R. 1 to protect U.S. fuel refineries and their ability to produce gasoline here. Through the inclusion of this provision Congress will correct a glaring problem in the proposed updates to EPA’s Risk Management Plan that would impose massive costs on the refining industry and potentially threaten a significant share of U.S. fuel production capacity without any measurable safety benefits.
