Generally supported federal programs and policies that encourage production, blending, and use of renewable fuels in the residential and commercial heating sector, including the Renewable Fuels Standard (RFS). Supported increasing the 2023 and future RFS renewable volume obligations for advanced biofuels and expand pathways for biomass to allow greater feedstock availability in the RFS. Advocated general support for increased oil and refined petroleum production in response to Russia's invasion of Ukraine, including use of the Defense Production Act in support of both conventional, renewable, and alternative fuel production. Consulted with the administration and Congress regarding appropriation conditions for release of product from the Northeast Home Heating Oil Reserve under 42 USC 6250b. Advocated changes to the Home Heating Oil Price Reduction Act (H.R.9008) that would prohibit fuel to be exported outside of the Northeast.
